The book has been written by leading Soviet authorities on cosmonautics and the industrialization of outer space. The object of the book is to familiarize the foreign reader with the advances of Soviet science and technology in tackling the problem of making new materials and medicinal preparations onboard spacecraft. Started on the Soyuz 6 space vehicle, work in this direction is being widely practiced in the Soveit Union. The topics examined in the book include the physical aspects of manufacturing processes in microgravity and their design and theoretical models. The matters taken up in the book have been given an all around consideration at three all union seminars on fluid mechanics and heat and mass transfer in microgravity conducted under the guidance and with the participation of the authors, and also at the Gagarin and Tsiolkovsky meetings. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jim Bowery Phone: 619/295-8868 PO Box 1981 Join the Mark Hopkins Society!
