Summary
The knowledge pertinent to dose evaluation is reviewed for conditions of flight in space in the vicinity of the earth but away from the influence of its atmosphere or magnetic field. Certain properties of the heavy nuclei are also discussed as well as some of the available information on their actual biological effects. The statistical nature of the hazard from cosmic radiations and the limitations of space flight due to such rays are discussed. (W.L.H.)
