COCOA, Fla. (AP) - The administrator of the American space program
says the United States may join with Japan and Europe within the next
five years to build an orbiting space station.
James Beggs of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
told the newspaper Cocoa TODAY in an interview published Sunday that
the station would use European Space Agency technology in building
spacelabs and Japanese computer expertise. He said habitable modules
connected by steel beams would be designed at the Johnson Space Center
in Houston and launched piece-by-piece from the Kennedy Space Center
in Florida.
