Entries are organized into these categories: organizations of the United Nations system; intergovernmental agencies; international agencies; international foundations and trust; and research establishments. A section for each country follows with these categories utilized where possible: national and state academies; government departments and official agencies; learned societies, professional institutions and other associations; foundations and trusts; government or official research establishments; industrial or commercial research organizations; and universities and colleges. Peaceful uses of outer space include scientific investigation, communication, meteorology, navigation, and directly allied subjects, with other tasic subjects brought in where they seem important.

To assist the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space in its worki the Secretary-General has been asked to continue the compilation and updating of information on facilities for education and training 'n basic subjects related to the peaceful uses of outer space. Following requests by the Secretary-General in 1965, many Member States submitted information on their national programmes, and further replies were received fromthespecializedagencies. PublicationsA/AC.105/28 and A/AC.105/C.1/L.11 and L.11/Add.1 were based thereon. The prcsent directory includes all this information, modified when necessary in the light of additional replies since receved, and it includes also much new material obtained from government agencies, learned societies, research establishments, universities and other institutions throughout the world.Acknowledgement is also made to the many sources listed in the bibliography at the end of this directory. The Secretariat of the United Nations was assisted in the compilatioa of the directory by a special consultant, Mr. S. Buchanan, B.Sc., A.F.R.Ae.S., F.B.I.S., A.F.A.I.A.A., of the City University, London. Although efforts have been made to check the accuracy and completeness of the information herein, it has not always been possible to do so.Inevitably, in work of this complexity, some omissions and mistakes will have occurred, and the Outer Space Affairs Group of the Secretariat of the United Nations would be grateful if recipients of the directory would advise them of any such errors. In interpreting the phrase " basic subjects related to the peaceful uses of outer space ", it is cleatly possible to include a very wide range of the total field of formal education in all countries. Mathematics, physics, chemistry, engineering, medicine, law, economics and other domains could all be relevant. The compilers have taken the main peaceful uses as scientific investigation, communication, meteorology and navigation, and have tried to include all these and diyectly allied subjects, with other basic subjects brought in where they seemed especially important. The designation of countries and territories and the arrangements of material in this publication should not be considered as implying any endorsement or other judgement by the Secretariat of the United Nations regarding the legal status of any country or territory, or of its authorities, or in respect of the delimitation of its boundaries.
