Conference on Combined Effects: Radiation, Microgravity, Trauma and Other Factors

Abstract

The Section Conference was a success and the information presented by the speakers was acknowledged by the attendees. COSPAR was established to continue the cooperative programs of rocket and satellite research successfully undertaken during the International Geophysical Year of 1957-58. The ISCU resolution creating COSPAR stated that the primary purpose of COSPAR was to provide the world scientific community with the means whereby it may exploit the possibilities of satellites and space probes of all kinds for scientific purposes, and exchange and resulting data on a cooperative basis . The objective of the AFOSR supported AIBS project was to provide for travel and subsistence support for a limited number of US speakers to attend Section MF.4 Combined Effect: Radiation, Microgravity, Trauma and Other Factors at the XXVIIIth meeting of COSPAR held at The Hague, The Netherlands, 25 June - 7 July 1990.
