The report describes some of the problems which the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has encountered in getting people to understand how the general public has profited from the technical discoveries of the space program. Next, it describes NASA's Technology Utilization Program and comments on it. It then describes some of the many spin-offs from the space program; these include examples from management technology, communications, aeronautics, medicine, fabrics, highway safety, and weather forecasting.
