USERS GUIDE TO PAYLOAD PLANNING FOR THE SLV-1B SPACE PROBE

Abstract

This report reviews the considerations presented to an experimenter in considering or using the SLV-1B as a launching vehicle. Included are discussion of payload weights, apogees, environments, volumes, launch facilities, documentation, suggested schedules, and applicable agencies in the SLV-1B program. The SLV-1B is a relatively low cost high performance space probe, used principally for conducting relatively light weight experiments in the region beyond 10,000 n.m. or for conducting preliminary test flights for satellite and deep space missions. The SLV-1B program utilizes an all-USAF planning, procuring, documenting, technical consulting, and launching organization.
