Low‐dose X‐ray radiation induces an adaptive response: A potential countermeasure to galactic cosmic radiation exposure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space exploration involves many dangers including galactic cosmic radiation (GCR). This class of radiation includes high‐energy protons and heavy ionizing ions. NASA has defined GCR as a carcinogenic risk for long‐duration space missions. To date, no clear strategy has been developed to counter chronic GCR exposure.

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Plasticity of the heart in response to changes in physical activity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The heart adapts to changes in physical activity, with inactivity (e.g. bed rest or spaceflight) causing cardiac atrophy and ventricular stiffening, and endurance exercise training leading to eccentric hypertrophy and improved ventricular compliance.

A Small Pathbreaking Spacecraft: Giants of Space Research (Bernard Blake, Dieter Hovestadt, and Edward Stone)

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract The Solar, Anomalous, and Magnetospheric Explorer (SAMPEX) mission launched in July 1992 was the first NASA “Small Explorer” project. It had the goal to show how space missions could be developed much more rapidly than had become the situation in the 1980s and 1990s.

Galaxies and Clusters of Galaxies [PDF]

open access: possible, 2002
The leap into deep space outside our Milky Way Galaxy, into the realm of the distant galaxies (or the extragalactic nebulae, as they were formerly called), and the beginnings of a cosmology based on observations, will be considered throughout history to be one of the most important achievements of the 20th century.
