Abstract
We summarize the discussion of the current status and future prospects of space and astrophysical plasma research prepared by the Panel on Space and Astrophysical plasmas, a part of the study on Physics administered by the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences. The Study on Physics is chaired by W. Brinkman of Bell Laboratories and will be completed in 1984.
