...large airliners, passengers have another reason to be uneasy. After studying 30 cockpit flight-crew members, Dr. Martin Moore-Ede, a professor at the Harvard Medical School, discovered that on long high-altitude flights, the cockpit crew is sometimes asleep. The pilots, copilots and navigators he interviewed admitted that they have either nodded off on the job or had to struggle not to do so an average of 16 times a month. This usually happens sometime between 4 and 5 in the morning. In other research, Moore-Ede discovered an incident in which a transcontinental flight missed its Los Angeles...

Citing the $603.5 million budget cuts of NASA by the Reagan administration and the planned 23 per cent reduction in the funds of the agency's science projects, Moore-ede said. "There is not enough general awareness of the research potential provided by Spacelab and the benefits from this research...
