From page 61...
... Neither has the report attempted to highlight all of the good features of the Space Station program -- the committee's energies have been directed, at the request of the Office of Space Station, toward issue identification. The following paragraphs outline several additional potential issues identified or further elaborated since the workshop.
From page 62...
... The facility's mission and timing, as well as its relationship to facilities for health research and extended duration crew operations activities, still need to be clarified. Moreover, the committee is concerned that all of the precursor activities required to allow design of a viable health maintenance capability may not be being adequately pursued.
From page 63...
... Several matters of potential concern, e.g., toxic materials handling, have been identified in this Supplementary Discussions section. Other possible concerns include orbital debris, joint Shuttle-Space Station activities, and the overall state of emergency planning and its impact on the design process.
