Abstract
This paper presents the results of a study to identify and define an evolutionary multi-user Lidar Instrument System to be flown aboard the Shuttle/SPacelab (Space Transportation System) starting in the mid-1980's. This Lidar System is to be capable of accommodating a wide range of scientific investigations in atmospheric science, weather and climate, and environmental quality. The range of Potential investigations is defined by, but not limited to, 26 experiment classes.
