Some human factors challenges for space missions include: 1) Reduced Gravity; 2) Remote Operation; 3) Information; 4) Multi-Purpose Design. This viewgraph presentation addresses each of these topics. It describes how the design and layout of equipment on spacecraft can accomodate human activity in a microgravity environment. It describes the remote operation of robotic arms and robots. Displays, procedures, information sharing, and automation are means of conveying information. Multi-purpose design facilitates accomodating and supporting tasks onboard a single vehicle.
