The anticipated advent of the U.S. Government sponsoring human-tended research on commercial suborbital flights necessitates the establishment of safety review procedures for federal agencies to allow government-sponsored spaceflight participants (SFPs) aboard these vehicles. Safety practices for National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA) personnel aboard aircraft, orbital rockets and platforms, and a non- NASA vehicle, the Soyuz, are summarized. The valuable “Recommended Practices for Human Space Flight Occupant Safety,” published by the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation (FAA-AST) in 2014, are summarized. Medical recommendations for operationally critical flight crewmembers, published by the Aerospace Medical Association Commercial Spaceflight Working Group, are reviewed. FAA-AST approved SFP training available at three U.S. commercial companies is summarized. Activities of ASTM International Committee F47 on Commercial Spaceflight, formed in 2016, are reviewed. Finally, safety comparisons are made with another challenging environment, deep sea submersibles.
