Abstract

The overall strategic science planning of the Office of Space Science and Applications (OSSA) is presented. The science opportunities inherent to the restructured Space Station are discussed and a synopsis of the OSSA implementation plan for Space Station Freedom utilization is offered. Attention is given to the microgravity science and applications facilities, the advanced protein crystal growth facility, the biotechnology facility, the modular combustion facility, and the life sciences facility.
