Dear Joshua:

In recent discussions with Dr. Lambertsen about the composi-
tion of the Man in Space Committee and the rather formidable list

ms
of members, liaison representatives, etc. now associated with Ua
this group, it seemed that we might present a truer picture of VW)
the size of the Committee if we were to make a distinction between
active members and ex officio or liaison members. We felt sure SG
that you would have no objection to being listed as a liaison )

representative of the Exobiology Committee and therefore would like
to make this adjustment,

Dr. Lambertsen still urgently requests’ your active participa-

tion in the activities of the Man in Space Committee and hopes that
it will be possible for you to continue to play a major role in its

work,
ery Lest Ae atta — Sincerely yours,

 

. A. Drbyshixe
