Explorer Platform development and capabilities are outlined. The Explorer Platform extends the user provisions of the Multimission Modular Spacecraft to include power generation and distribution and on-orbit exchange of payload modules. The platform can be integrated with its payload and launched on an expendable launch vehicle or it can be carried separately from its payload on the Space Shuttle and assembled with its payload on-orbit. Later Shuttle flights can revisit the Platform to perform servicing or payload exchange. This capability to support several payloads in succession allows costs to be shared by several users over the 10 yr life of the platform.
