Some of the significant potential hazards affecting NASA's planned space-flight initiatives are discussed together with the safety design strategies they mandate. Attention is given to the role played by NASA's newly centralized safety organization during the design of manned space flight hardware and software. Prompt-effect/physical hazards include fire, explosions and depressurization, and natural and man-made space debris. Delayed-effect hazards include radiation and toxic contamination, microgravity effects, crew illness and injury, and isolation. Safety design considerations for software and hypersonic transatmospheric vehicles are evaluated.
