Subpart 1214.8 - Reimbursement for Spacelab Services |
§ 1214.801 - Definitions.
-
(a) Shuttle policy. The appropriate subpart (1214.1 or 1214.2) governing use of the Shuttle. Determinaltion of the appropriate subpart for each customer shall be made by reference to §§1214.101 and 1214.201.
(b) Spacelab elements. Pallets (3-meter segments), pressurized modules (long or short), and the FMDM/MPESS (1-meter cross-bay structure), all as maintained in the NASA-approved Space lab configuration.
(c) Standard flight price. The price for standard Shuttle and standard Spacelab services provided. If a customer elects not to use a portion of the standard services, the standard flight price shall not be affected.
(d) Shuttle load factor. The parameter used to compute the customer's pro rata share of Shuttle services and used to compute the Shuttle charge factor. Means of computing this parameter are defined in §1214.813.
(e) Spacelab load fraction. The parameter used to compute the customer's pro rata share of each element's services and used to compute the element charge factor. Means of computing this parameter are defined in §1214.813.
(f) Shuttle charge factor and element charge factor. Parameters used in computation of the customer's flight price. Means of computing these parameters are defined in §1214.813.
(g) Dedicated flight price for Spacelab missions. (1) The single-shift operation dedicated flight price for Spacelab missions is identical to the Shuttle dedicated flight price as defined in the Shuttle policy.
(2) The two-shift operation dedicated flight price for Spacelab missions is the sum of:
(i) The Shuttle dedicated flight price as defined in the Shuttle policy.
(ii) The standard price for additional services required to support a second shift of on-orbit operations.
