The status of aerospace industrial development in various countries is summarized, and specific areas of current and future progress are discussed. The first Shuttle astronauts recount details of the flight and performance of the initial Columbia mission and an attempt to assess the importance of the Shuttle as a milestone in transportation systems is presented. ESA space activities are reviewed, including the impact of space programs on European industries and employment. Attention is also given to Japanese and Chinese space programs. The evolution of communications satellites is traced and projections are made for near-term satellite requirements to be incorporated in the construction of Intelsat VI. Finally, advances in production of military jets and helicopters are considered, along with candidate alternate fuel systems to replace petroleum products.
