The effect of combined compression and tactile stimulation on ankle somatosensation in a lunar gravity lower limb load analog [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyAnkle somatosensation appears to be negatively affected when in simulated hypogravity (gravity, 1 > g < 0). Developing countermeasures to reduce this negative effect is necessary for sensorimotor control as astronauts prepare to explore the Moon ...

Ankle Somatosensation and Lower-Limb Neuromuscular Function on a Lunar Gravity Analogue [PDF]
Brain SciencesBackground/Objectives: The adverse effects of low gravity on human physiology are well documented; however, much of the literature is directed at changes which occur in microgravity (µg: weightlessness) with relatively less documented on changes in ...

Theoretical and Experimental Investigations on High-Precision Micro-Low-Gravity Simulation Technology for Lunar Mobile Vehicle [PDF]
Sensors, 2023 With the development of space technology, the functions of lunar vehicles are constantly enriched, and the structure is constantly complicated, which puts forward more stringent requirements for its ground micro-low-gravity simulation test technology ...

Gastrocnemius medialis contractile behavior during running differs between simulated Lunar and Martian gravities [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 The international partnership of space agencies has agreed to proceed forward to the Moon sustainably. Activities on the Lunar surface (0.16 g) will allow crewmembers to advance the exploration skills needed when expanding human presence to Mars (0.38 g).

Simulated hypogravity impairs the angiogenic response of endothelium by up-regulating apoptotic signals [PDF]
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2005 Health hazards in astronauts are represented by cardiovascular problems and impaired bone healing. These disturbances are characterized by a common event, the loss of function by vascular endothelium, leading to impaired angiogenesis.
