MSFC announced award of a $110 096 contract to General Dynamics Convair Div., San Diego, Calif., to study and define ideas for An automatic structural-beam fabrication machine for use in the Space Shuttle [see Mar. 1]. The beams, made of a composite material, would support large scale space structures and act as electrical and thermal insulators. (MSFC 'Release 77-72)
MSFC announced award of a $695 000 contract to Rockwell International Space Div., Downey, Calif., for a study of solar power satellite systems. The study would identify and suggest solutions for technical and social problems that might occur in harnessing solar energy from space. (MSFC Release 77-73)
