  • Abstract
    This paper describes the Spacelab command and data management system for both the manned-module and pallet-only configurations. The Spacelab support capabilities for various types of experiments are described in terms of data processing, display, recording and multiplexing. The Spacelab´s utilization of Orbiter data processing and data transmission capabilities is also discussed.
