Abstract
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration variety of programs covering many different disciplines and many different objectives. In this brief overview, all of the programs of NASA cannot be covered, but an attempt will be made to describe some of the diverse activities within the agency. Toward the end of this paper, attention will be directed to those activities which are related to the medical profession. Detailed discussion of work closely related to cardiovascular problems will be avoided since these problems receive the primary emphasis of this book. Other papers will discuss in considerable detail NASA programs related to the cardiovascular area.
