Designing Beyond Current Conceptualizations of Spaceflight Experiences [PDF]
The potential future democratization of spaceflight reveals a need for design of experiences that extend beyond our current conceptualization of spaceflight. Research on career astronauts indicates that transformative experiences occur during spaceflight despite the physiological and psychological stressors involved.

Temporal Changes in Astronauts Muscle and Cardiorespiratory Physiology Pre-, In-, and Post-Spaceflight [PDF]
NASAs vision for future exploration missions depends on the ability to protect astronauts health and safety for performance of Extravehicular Activity (EVA), and to allow astronauts to safely egress from vehicles in a variety of landing scenarios (e.g ...

Plasticity of the heart in response to changes in physical activity
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.

Abstract figure legend Neuromuscular disuse scenarios of limb immobilization, reduced activity and bed rest result in impairments of muscle strength that exceed losses of muscle size. Neural adaptations are an assured consequence of disuse. The available evidence garnered from human and animal models highlights suppressed motor unit firing rate (MUFR ...

Abstract figure legend Muscle unloading induces declines in muscle function, particularly in maximal and explosive strength. The decline in explosive strength (quantified as rate of force development, RFD) is greater than the decline in maximal strength (quantified as maximal force, Fmax).
