A study is under way of a manned orbital space laboratory, some of the purposes of which would be to determine man's adaptability to space and to study structures and systems in space before committing manned spacecraft to long-range missions. It uses an inflatable torus as laboratory and living quarters and has an erectable solar collector as the source of heat for the power plant. The station rotates six times per minute in order to provide some artificial gravity together with stabilization. An escape taxi, which is not shown, is attached to the bottom of the station.
