 Vonkries, W. European Utilization of the American Space Transport System Space 

 Shuttle, Washington, D.C. Transemantics, Inc. December 1976. 20 p. (Available 

 from NTIS as N77-15084/5SL.) 



The significance of the space shuttle as a unique low cost space transport 

 system is considered, giving attention to the dependence of Europe on the 

 space shuttle for a utilization of space on a competitive basis. An investi- 

 gation is, therefore, conducted regarding the legal aspects of participation 

 of Europeans in the use of the space transport system of the future. Relevant 

 space related agreements between the U.S. and European countries are 

 critically examined, taking into account the regulations concerning the devel- 

 opment and manufacture of Spacelab.
