The purpose is to develop an overall program of space research that will address the most significant topics in the solar and space physics discipline, that will clearly define the priority of investigations, and that will be affordable by NASA. The status of solar and space physics expected in 1995, assuming a number of space programs proceed according to present plans, is described. A variety of programs intended for implementation after 1995 are identified that will employ new techniques for the investigation of outstanding scientific questions, will address new questions that arise as natural extensions of previous studies, and will allow the pursuit of new topics that cannot be addressed at present. The developments in technology that will be required for the era after 1995 are also described. The technology needs are summarized.
