title: Space nursing.
abstract: Rogers' nursing science of unitary human beings has potential for providing a unique understanding of human life and health in space as well as on Earth. When planning for nursing services beyond the planetary level, we must focus these on people as integrated wholes in mutual process with a radically different environment. The overview effect, as experienced by astronauts and others, suggests that future space inhabitants are precursors of spacekind.
