... This ability wlll lead to dramatic improvements in the limits of observation in many fields of astronomy, including planetary, galactJc, end extragalactic studies, and part icularly in studies of the faint objects or lntertll in cosmology and In the evolution of galaxies. These improvementS are attainable only in tele.scopes opera tins outside the earth's atmosphere.

Similar problems have arisen in the put, but they are not in themselves surflcitnt reason for failing to procttd with the LST; never· theless, we recommend that a study be made of the problem of hand lin& the flow of data from the various modes of operation, including the proceues of data diJtribution and the requirements for manpower In data handling and scientlnc analysis.
