Effects of Communication Delay on Human Spaceflight Missions

Human-Centered Aerospace Systems and Sustainability Applications, 2023
Missions onboard the International Space Station rely on the real-time availability of a large ground team of system experts to command the vehicle, solve safety-critical problems, and guide the crew during complex operations.

Pulmonary Function in Human Spaceflight

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2023
AbstractHuman spaceflight is entering a time of markedly increased activity fueled by collaboration between governmental and private industry entities. This has resulted in successful mission planning for destinations in low Earth orbit, lunar destinations (Artemis program, Gateway station) as well as exploration to Mars.

Effect of Explanations in AI-Assisted Anomaly Treatment for Human Spaceflight Missions

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2022
Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents have the potential to play a critical role in human spaceflight by being the first point of contact for astronauts during emergencies in a long duration spaceflight mission, when communication delays with the Mission ...

Nutrition as Fuel for Human Spaceflight

Physiology, 2021
History books are rife with examples of the role of nutrition in determining either the success or the failure of human exploration on Earth. With planetary exploration in our future, it is imperative that we understand the role of nutrition in optimizing health before humans can safely take the next giant leaps in space exploration.

Challenges to the central nervous system during human spaceflight missions to Mars.

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2020
Space travel presents a number of environmental challenges to the central nervous system, including changes in gravitational acceleration that alter the terrestrial synergies between perception and action; galactic cosmic radiation that can damage ...

Endocrine relationships during human spaceflight

American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1999
Human spaceflight is associated with a chronic loss of protein from muscle. The objective of this study was to determine whether changes in urinary hormone excretion could identify a hormonal role for this loss. Urine samples were collected from the crews of two Life Sciences Space Shuttle missions before and during spaceflight.
