What is Space Station Technology (Progress in Technology) about?

Space Station Technology is a compilation of 48 SAE papers published from 1992 to 1995 covering technological advances in the construction of large, inhabitable vehicles intended for long-term human presence in space. It covers the substantial changes in proposed designs that have come about recently in response to political and economic forces. It also documents work on the development of an international space station. Edited by Robert G. Melton of the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University, Space Station Technology covers such topics as assured crew return vehicle issues, intermodule ventilation, hyperbaric environmental control assembly, and the psychological effects of isolation on a space station. This valuable reference book is divided into the following sections: attitude control; crew health and safety; environmental control and life support; extravehicular activity; shuttle/MIR-station/spacelab docking mission; human factors and thermal control. Aerospace engineers, space station designs, and researchers will find this book to be an exceptional resource tool for expanding human boundaries through the development of space station systems
