The contract was initiated on 4 August 1977 as a-6-month study to assess the deficiencies between the state of the art in thermal--control surface technology and that which would be required for both a 25-kW power module and a 25-year­ mission space station. The Scope of Work of the contract has been modified to include ad­ ditional emphasis on Task I, "Requirements Analysis," and the period of per­ formance will be extended for an additional eight months of effort. The final report is being deferred until the end of the extended period of performance. This report covers the period of 4 August 1977 to 4 February 1978,) and is submitted in two volumes. The literature search and survey portion of this study are contained in Volume II. This study was performed by personnel of Aerojet ElectroSystems Company, for the Space Sciences Laboratory of NASA-Marshall Flight Center. Study Manager for the program was Carl R. Haag. Principal contribu­ tors to the program were C. R. Maag, J. M. Millard, andM. T. Grenier. The NASA technical monitor for the study is Mr. Donald Wilkes. Mr. Rauol Lopez acted as technical advisor for the 25-kW power module. Both Messrs. Wilkes and Lopez made significant contributions to the study through enlightening discus­ sions with the author. Their interest and assistance are greatly appreciated. 40 ii Report 5666 The attached citations comprise the literature search conducted for NASA/MSFC under the "Space Station Thermal Control Surfaces Study". Four different data bases were searched.
