This list contains all of the papers from a special issue of Acta Astronautica deriving from the 15th IAA Humans in Space Symposium held in Graz, Austria in 2005. The motto of the symposium was: "Benefits of human presence in space-Historical, scientific, medical, cultural, and political aspects." 21 papers are listed in the NASA support section and 30 papers are in the other papers section. The papers are grouped generally by topic. The citations do not appear in PubMed.
