Exposure to space flight has been shown to results in changes in
many physiological systems, including the musculoskeletal system,
the cardiovascular system, the immune system, and the
neurovestibular system. These changes could negatively impact the
ability of humans to undertake long-term habitation and exploration
of space. However, there are limits to the studies that can be done
with humans in space. Both ground-based and space flight animal
model systems are currently used for these studies as an
alternative. This volume covers the latest developments in the use
of animal models to study the effects of the space flight
environment on human physiological systems.
* Includes unique insights into the mechanisms and the potential
role of gravity, stress, radiation and other space flight
environment factors on physiological systems
* A complete history back to the beginnings of space flight
* Discusses the development of countermeasures to prevent any
damaging effects of the space flight environment on physiological
systems
