The Space Shuttle Orbiter is the only U.S. spacecraft in operation today that routinely performs an orbital rendezvous with another spacecraft. The trajectory planning and training of both flight crews and ground operations personnel required to achieve a 100 percent success rate is considerable. The preflight planning and training can be reduced through very simple design considerations of a new space vehicle.
