General concepts and design requirements for the protection of Space Station Freedom against damage from meteoroids and orbital debris are reviewed. In particular, attention is given to the current approach to spacecraft protection from the meteoroid environment, derived from probability-based requirements. Alternative approaches are considered, which include a refined probability approach, an area ratio approach, and a particle matrix approach. The original approach and the new approaches are then compared in terms of design flexibility and programmatic maintenance considerations.
