Automation in manned spaceflight
Acta Astronautica, 1992With the ever increasing complexity and use of advanced technologies in the development of equipment and experiments in spaceflight, the possibility offers itself to automating repetitious or very sensitive operations. The implementation of such automation lends itself well to teleoperations and the eventual introduction of artificial intelligence ...

Spaceflight and the telltale heart
The American Journal of Surgery, 1983Cardiac arrhythmias have not been a common occurrence during manned spaceflights. Cardiovascular deconditioning, on the other hand, is a universal finding both during and after exposure to microgravity. Exercise capability is reduced only in the immediate postflight period as is cardiac output.

The human biology of spaceflight
American Journal of Human BiologyAbstractTo expand the human exploration footprint and reach Mars in the 2030s, we must explore how humans survive and thrive in demanding, unusual, and novel ecologies (i.e., extreme environments). In the extreme conditions encountered during human spaceflight, there is a need to understand human functioning and response in a more rigorous ...

Effects of spaceflight on the brain
The Lancet NeurologyThe number of long duration human spaceflights has increased substantially over the past 15 years, leading to the discovery of numerous effects on the CNS. Microgravity results in headward fluid shifts, ventricular expansion, an upward shift of the brain within the skull, and remodelling of grey and white matter.

Orientation Illusions in Spaceflight
Journal of Vestibular Research, 1997Investigations of spontaneous illusory reactions were carried out during spaceflights of various durations by ANKETA questionnaires (104 cosmonauts). From a total of 104 cosmonauts, 24, in addition, used a dictaphone to record a verbal description of the illusions and their sensations on tape.
