...expression in spaceflight were found to be Arg1-dependent, suggesting a major role for that gene in the physiological adaptation of undifferentiated cells to spaceflight. HsfA2 (Heat Shock Factor A2) has a significant effect on spaceflight adaptation...
..., social and cultural facets of life affect the design process. Human factors, including complications related to human physiology and psychology must be considered. For instance, when designing a greenhouse system, cultural aspects (especially for...
... during an exercise session. The suit is designed to simulate some of the effects of gravity to relieve the negative physiological impacts of microgravity on the musculoskeletal system such as back pain and muscle atrophy, and loss of bone density...
... preliminary findings. One of the studies focusing on genetic, epigenetic and transcriptional dynamics (how cells regulate physiological processes) of each twin, revealed that space travel causes an increase in methylation, the process of turning...
... safe at all it would seem. When the Apollo astronauts returned from the Moon, they experienced a number of physiological effects such as sore throats and watering eyes - symptoms that soon earned the title of “lunar hay...
... experiments on astronauts who have spent months in space have shown that long-duration spaceflight causes widespread physiological changes to the human body. This was most apparent when NASA conducted a ground-breaking study on American...
