1963 E. Stuhlinger et al. Astronaut. Engin. & Sci. iv. 68 Manrating is a new term. To manrate a space vehicle means to make it suitable for carrying a manned payload.

1968 New Scientist 21 Mar. 631 After it [sc. a new Soviet booster] has been man-rated, however, and used in orbital rendezvous and docking missions, the USSR will have achieved a major platform for further advance.

1971 Sci. News Let. 19 June 416 The general question of the reliability of unmanned spacecraft has always been a thorny problem for NASA. Manned spacecraft have redundant systems—back-up systems in case one fails. This method, called ‘man-rating a spacecraft’, is costly.

1987 Spaceflight Oct. 52/1 The Hermes launch vehicle, Ariane 5, will also have safety modifications made before being man-rated.
