Human Spaceflight and Aviation Standards
NASA Human Health, Medical, and Performance Spaceflight Standards – NASA Standard 3001 Volumes 1 and 2
NASA-STD-3001, NASA Spaceflight Human-System Standard, Volumes 1 and 2, establishes Agency standards that enable human spaceflight missions by minimizing health risks, providing vehicle design parameters, and supporting the performance of both flight and ground crew. Applicability and tailoring of the standards are determined based on each program’s mission profile and procurement strategy.
Volume 1 of NASA-STD-3001 covers the requirements necessary to support astronaut health and provide medical care, while Volume 2 addresses human-related vehicle system design and operations requirements that maintain astronaut safety and promote performance.
The Human Spaceflight & Aviation Standards Team continually works with programs to provide the highest-quality standards and implementation documentation to minimize development issues. Through partnerships with programs and industry, these standards are continually evolving to support the successful implementation of NASA missions and the ongoing commercialization of human spaceflight.
