“…This study is consistent with methodological themes advocated by the author elsewhere that 1) social and behavioral phenomena are natural phenomena and 2) all human factors interfaces of long-duration spaceflight need to be addressed in systematic ways (Dudley-Rowley 1999, Dudley-Rowley, Bishop, Farry, and Gangale 2000, Dudley-Rowley, Whitney, Bishop, Caldwell, and Nolan 2001, Dudley-Rowley and Bishop 2002, Dudley-Rowley, Okushi, Gangale, Flores, and Diaz 2003). [6][7][8][9] Would the systematic construction of Cohen's and Junge's Human Factors Interaction Model relate to actual events aboard the Mir? And, how robustly predictive would it be?…”

[Abstract] In 1985, Rockwell International (now Boeing-North American) completed the Space Station Crew Safety Alternatives Study for NASA. This five-volume study identified a wide range of potential safety threats and hazards that the crew might encounter on the future International Space Station. These threats included fire, explosion, collision, decompression, contamination, and radiation, among many others. One volume focused on the human factors aspects of safety, featuring the Crew Safety-Human Factors Interaction Model. In this model, a stressor (such as one of the threats) can lead to degraded performance, which can contribute to human error, unless appropriate and effective countermeasures are available to the crew. In 1986, the Soviet Union launched the Mir Space Station, the "second generation" that followed the Salyut series of space stations. The Mir was designed for a five-year life on orbit. It remained in use for fourteen years. During the first ten years, it performed well, with few safety issues. However, during the last four years, the aging station --operating at more than two times beyond its design lifetime --encountered a variety of safety hazards and human factors issues. Despite these often serious problems, the Mir crews always found a way to save the station, and no crew member was seriously injured or killed. This paper evaluates the safety record on Mir, and compares it to the NASA-Rockwell study, that was contemporaneous with the construction and launch of Mir. This comparison and analysis can provide a foundation for future space crew safety, related human factors support, and ultimately the human colonization of space.

“…48 As we have written elsewhere, if space tourism would mature to where a low Earth orbit (LEO) hotel could open for business, the boundaries of quality of life in space would be defined. 49 The minimal man in a can model was meant for short-duration spaceflight but remains the model seen on various spacecraft and space stations so far over longer durations.…”

“…The emergence and evolution of these technologies would necessarily expand the concept of the human factors. The human-technology, human-environment, and human-human interfaces comprise the most comprehensive vision of the human factors (Dudley-Rowley and Bishop, 2002). The concept of a machine ecology that paves the way for a human ecology and that interacts with that ecology invites a conceptual expansion of the human factors.…”

A technology of self-sustaining robotic ecologies (called "robosphere" by the co-author) is likely to emerge in order to prepare for and serve longduration space missions of humans on Mars or in other extraterrestrial environments. The emergence of this would necessarily expand the concept of the human factors. The human-human, humantechnology, and human-environment human factors interfaces would be joined by the technologytechnology, or machine-machine, interface, in the sense that machines would need to interact and cooperate for types of activities that, until now, would invariably involve humans.
