Modular construction provides large volume storage facility in minimum space
Each modular element consists of two hemispherical shells with material removed near their apexes to permit joining by a weldment to form a passage. Elements are welded together at their largest dimensions to form either a straight line continuous or a circular pressure vessel.

Modular space station phase B extension: NASA headquarters quarterly review
Progress in the modular space station development program is reported. The space station project office organization and the manner in which the center interfaces with NR are presented along with a sortie and experiment analysis. The operations, subsystems and configurations are reviewed, and future activities are listed.

Modular space station phase B extension preliminary performance specification. Volume 1: Initial station systems
The general, operational, design/construction, and subsystem design requirements are presented for a solar powered modular space station system. While these requirements apply only to the initial station system, the system is readily adaptable to a growth configuration.

Space station MSFC-DPD-235/DR no. CM-03 specification, modular space station project, Part 1 CEI
Contract engineering item specifications for the modular space station are presented. These specifications resulted from the development and allocations of requirements which are concise statements of performance or constraints on performance. Specifications contain requirements for functional performance and for the verification of design solutions.

Space station MSFC-DPD-235/DR no. CM-02 specification, space station project (modular)
The orbiting laboratory which can take many forms and can be configured to house a crew of up to 12 men is discussed. The initial study of the 33-foot-diameter Space Station, launched by the Saturn INT-21 and supporting a complement of 12 crewmen, has been completed and documented. A Modular Space Station comprised of smaller, shuttle-launched modules is described. These modules could ultimately be configured to provide for a crew of the same size as envisioned for the 33-foot-diameter Space Station-but buildup would be gradual, beginning with a small initial crew and progressing toward greater capability by adding modules and crewmen on a flexible schedule.

Space station (modular) mission analysis. Volume 1: Mission analysis
The mission analysis on the modular space station considers experimental requirements and options characterized by low initial cost and incremental manning. Features that affect initial development and early operating costs are identified and their impacts on the program are assessed. Considered are the areas of experiment, mission, operations, information management, and long life and safety analyses.

A modular approach for assessing the effect of radiation environments on man in operational systems. The radiobiological vulnerability of man during task performance
A modular approach for assessing the affects of radiation environments on man in operational systems has been developed. The feasibility of the model has been proved and the practicality has been assessed. It has been applied to one operational system to date and information obtained has been submitted to systems analysts and mission planners for the assessment of man's vulnerability and impact on systems survivability. In addition, the model has been developed so that the radiobiological data can be input to a sophisticated man-machine interface model to properly relate the radiobiological stress with other mission stresses including the effects of a degraded system.
