Unexpected spacecraft flight emergency situations that can occur were tackled by a ground central backup crew personnel. Simulated malfunctions on a spacecraft mockup were performed and recommendations were radioed to an orbiting crew. Specifically, the Apollo-Soyuz space mission is given as an example, and the emergency procedures followed during that mission are reviewed. Topics discussed are: (1) use of hypnosis to combat space flight fatigue, (2) use of stimulants to combat space flight fatigue, and (3) psychophysiological factors that influence work capacity and mental alertness in performing such functions as stellar navigation, control and communications, and meteorological tasks.
