This volume of the Series SpringerBriefs in Space Life Sciences
summarizes the newest finding in the field of mental health and
physiological exercise in Space. Currently two major challenges are
impacting human health in the western societies, one being a move
towards a sedentary society, the second one being longevity. Both
have a considerable impact on physical as well as mental health.
Space life science research helps to understand the underlying
degenerative physiological and neuro-psychological processes as
living in space, living in microgravity can be regarded as a time
lapse of the sedentary and aging human being. Translational
research of the past years has shown that exercise can be regarded
as a key factor to counteract physical and mental deconditioning in
space, guaranteeing a holistic approach to health and a benefit to
the socio-demographic changes of our society. The book is written
for scientists in biomedicine, more specific in aging research,
sports physiology and neurosciences.
