In order to define an appropriate mix of manned and unmanned operations, NASA will need to 'qualify man for space flight' in the broadest sense. That is, NASA should pursue a biomedical program which explores the optimization of man's role in space, the limitations on his effectiveness and means to circumvent those limitations, in short, a program to determine the best use of man as a space subsystem in interaction with automated subsystems. An effective program directed to this objective exceeds the present capabilities of NASA and involves resources not yet developed in the biomedical community. In this report, consideration is given to the implications of such a program and a number of recommendations are offered which are intended to accomplish this objective. (Author)
