MSFC awarded a $400,000 contract to McDonnell Douglas as the follow-up of an initial study of ideas for manned platforms in space. MSFC was the lead NASA center for the study of space platforms designed to carry payloads of science experiments left in orbit by the Shuttle, which would return from time to time to replace equipment in orbit. As a structure grew, temporary manned modules would be added, with the objective of a permanent structure where scientists and technicians would do research for extended periods of time. The McDonnell Douglas study would be completed in about 10 months. (MSFC Release 81-68)
