内容記述 | There are major unresolved questions about changes in physiology of the crews of future zero-gravity manned Mars mission vehicles. This paper summarizes the changes induced by long duration weightlessness in different body systems, and emphasizes the need for further research into these changes using animal and human subjects in space and in ground-based simulations. If the changes are shown not to be acceptable, it will be necessary to provide artificial gravity for the crew. Artificial gravity itself produces some physiological problems, and these also require extensive study. Both lines of research must be pursued with some urgency so that the major decision to have or not to have artificial gravity can be made on the basis of adequate information. |
