The significance of the scientific investigator in space flights is discussed. Noting that early space flights required the services primarily of pilots, the observation is made that there is an increasing tendency to send scientific specialists into space, and that this tendency is being increased still further by the use of orbiting space stations, primarily designed for scientific research rather than development of the flight equipment itself.
