This study contains data for 48 members of three international organizations: International Telecommunications Union (ITU), World Meteorological Organization (WMO), and United Nations Space Committee (UNSC), in 1969. Biographical information on the members is provided, along with their attitudes, perceptions, and opinions of the different organizations, and their views on the formulation of space law. Also included is information on the length of respondents' membership in the organizations and in the organizations' committees. Other variables probe respondents' perceptions of the task of their organizations in regard to international regulation of space exploration, the international system and its effects on space exploration, factors that generated the highest degree of conflict within their organizations, the space issues in relation to other issues in international politics, structures of influence within their organizations, and processes of integration, such as participation in other organizations, and the effects of participation on these other organizations. Respondents were also asked whether their organizations should be performing other tasks in addition to what was being done, and if the structures of their organizations should be changed in any way. Demographic variables include respondents' age, sex, nationality, and education.
