Add to ORKGFour projects carried out in 1990-9l at the University of California, Los Angeles, under NASA/USRA sponsorship are summarized. One of the projects described is a mission design, the three others include the design and construction of space-related hardware and testing. Topics researched include: manned voyage to Mars with periodic refueling from electrically propelled tankers; ground speed of balloons on Mars; tripod lunar landing structure; and grappling/docking device accommodating large lateral and angular misalignment
