520 |a"Under DOC DSS Contract 01PCO36100-8-0104 0PC77-00451, Spar has undertaken a joint study with the Department of Communications, Communications Research Centre, (CRC), to determine the responsibilities of the Canadian Spacecraft Users for launch services of both the United States, Space Transportation System and the European Ariane launch vehicles together with their comparative present costs. In the 1980-1990 timeframe, both systems will be the operational work horses for the Western Space Community. … This study determines the basic and hidden costs to the user of launching with either STS or Ariane and presents a mid 1978 checkpoint comparison of his total external launch service expenses. It further identifies the risks which are currently imposed on the customer by these launchers. It should be noted that all of the costs and interfaces of these new services have not yet been identified or clearly specified by the agencies, especially in areas of multiple spacecraft cargo interactions. This is understandable at the point in the programs where qualification hardware is still in test, where the first flight is at least 1 year off and where payload interfacing and coordination is in a rapid state of evolution. Soft cost areas have been identified"--Introduction, pages 1-2 (volume I).
