The station, which opened in 2001, tracks the re-entry of Chinese manned space vehicles.
The Soviets called this the first launch of a communications satellite from a manned space vehicle.
All previous US manned space vehicles had launch escape systems, although none were ever used.
The flight marked the first time an orbital manned space vehicle had been re-flown with a second crew.
The company was an early pioneer in plasma physics and developed materials for communicating with manned space vehicles reentering the atmosphere.
The balloon's builders say it has more in common with a manned space vehicle than with any conventional airship or balloon.
STS-1 was also the first U.S. manned space vehicle launched without an unmanned powered test flight.
Locating a SAR in a manned space vehicle may require that the humans carefully remain motionless relative to the vehicle during data collection periods.
As soon as they had their equipment in operation, they picked up an extended (it lasted seven days and nights) series of broadcasts, apparently from orbiting manned space vehicles.
Corning manufactured the windows for U.S. manned space vehicles, and supplied the glass blank for the primary mirror in the Hubble Space Telescope.
This configuration was unlike anything seen so far for a manned space vehicle, with the solar arrays needed for electrical power vastly bigger than the habitable volume at the centre.
It was much cheaper to put heavy payloads into orbit with a BDB than with a manned space vehicle like the old Shuttle or the VStar.
From our perspective, the costly shuttle and the space-station complex look more expendable than pathfinding robotic probes of the solar system and a transition to new manned space vehicles.
Because of its potential use as a medical evacuation method, the CRV design was required to address a number of issues that are not factors for a standard manned space vehicle.
Thruster systems have been used on most manned space vehicles, including Vostok, Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, Soyuz, and the Space Shuttle.
Rockwell International, for instance, agreed to sell its aerospace businesses to Boeing recently for $3.2 billion, ridding itself of a division that was a leader in manned space vehicles and rockets.
The Space Transportation System (STS) was a proposed system of reusable manned space vehicles envisioned by NASA in 1969 to support extended operations beyond the Apollo program.
Because it was the first reusable manned space vehicle, the shuttle made it possible not just to launch satellites but to retrieve them and bring them back to earth, as it has done with numerous communications satellites.
Formally, only two organizations which were practically capable of developing manned space vehicles competed in the government tender to build the new spacecraft-RKK Energia in Korolev and Moscow-based Khrunichev enterprise.
This rocket and its derivatives, while never an effective ICBM, was powerful enough to launch Sputnik and Vostok manned space vehicles into orbit enabling the USSR to beat the US to space.
The proposal allots $9.6 billion for science, aeronautics and exploration, and $6.7 billion for exploration capabilities, including the operation of the space shuttle and the International Space Station and the early development of a new manned space vehicle.
For example, Konstantin P. Feoktistov, chief designer of manned space vehicles in the regular space establishment, attacked the American shuttle in 1984 as "economically and technically unjustified" and said that "automated transports are more suitable" than shuttles for supplying space stations.
Despite Ms. Mulberry's doubts about a launching date, she and others expressed confidence that the shuttles would return to space in the not-too-distant future, and that when it came time to build the new manned space vehicle proposed by Mr. Bush, Kennedy would thrive again.
As launch operations manager in KSC's Test Operations Office during Apollo, he was responsible for the checkout of all manned space vehicles, including boosters and spacecraft, from Apollo 7 in 1968 through the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project in 1975.
