Versatile science-and-technology complex of the Ukrainian module ISS

摘要

Project of the development of a versatile scientific-technological complex (VSTC) as a part of Ukrainian module of the international space station, which has been suggested by specialists of the E.O.Paton Electric Welding Institute, is based on the many-year experience of a long-term preparation of cosmonouts-operators and practical realization of technological processes on orbit. VSTC will make it possible to considerably widen the possibility of in- and outboard activity of space crews and performance of scientific experiments, repair-restoring and site works for maintenance of external systems of the station.
