Science, society and the space program.Exposition of the contributions the space program can make toward improving the quality of life. The contribution involves both short-range application of space technology and the long-range search for knowledge. Large land areas can be surveyed from spacecraft to determine not only whether land is tillable, but what kind of crops will flourish. The space communications program can reach many millions of people more economically than other methods. The long-range aspects are concerned with the effect of modification of the environment.
