Sixty years of manned space flight in the light of Russian legislation in the field of radiation safety. Basic principles in the ICRP recommendations and in Russian law. Part 1 (in the order of discussion)

This article is the first of two interrelated ones, which, in the order of discussion, compare the 60-year evolution of the regulation of radiation safety of space flights (RSSF) and radiation safety (RS) in ground conditions from the position of the basic principles of ensuring RS. To do this, a method of quoting excerpts from relevant documents has been chosen. The first article states that, although dose limits have consistently decreased over the years, they have been established in accordance with basic principles. Without denying the positive methodological role of the principles, the author now considers the inclusion of their wording in legal and regulatory documents unnecessary.
