Nasa Flight Surgeon

NASA FLIGHT DOC RESOURCES

To all our Space Docs:

This page is designed to provide NASA flight surgeons with a comprehensive catalogue of resources difficult to find elsewhere. Whether on the road, at home station, or handing out in orbit on the ISS; all you need is a connection to the net and you’re good to go.

Please leave comments on this page if there is information that you are looking for or have found wanting in the past. I will do my best to find it or create content to address that need.

Volanti Subvenimus!
