BEHAVIORAL RESEARCH WITH ANIMALS IN A MANNED SPACE LABORATORY,

Abstract

This paper suggests animal behavioral research during prolonged weightlessness. The research suggested is justified on the basis of the short gestation period and rapid maturation of small animals, the number of subjects which may be studied, the controls which can be achieved, and the resultant increase in reliability of findings.
