There needs to be lots of planning as to what specialties makeup the first crews to be sent.

Simple injuries are also a problem. Wounds don't drain in microgravity, blood doesn't pool. A deep enough cut is probably fatal.

Sounds like planning to create a gravitational field like Earth's would be required.

MSG (Join to see) - Yes, like Deep Space Nine! An astronomy teacher in late 80s said that all the Star Trek series were based on actual science being applied to the work of trying to create the technology that is part of all the series. (He sort of inferred that at least elementary prototypes existed.)
