Exposure to microgravity leads to profound physiological changes that challenge human health during spaceflight and have significant implications for long‐duration missions. Research has demonstrated ...

That’s exactly what a study published today in Science Advances sought to do. The researchers exposed mice aboard the ISS to ...

Simulated effects of microgravity, created by 60 days of constant bed rest, severely disrupts rhythmic gene expression in humans, according to a new study. Simulated effects of microgravity, created ...

Space travel has always tested the human body by the effects of the new conditions of altered gravity on biological systems. It has long been known that continuous exposure to microgravity conditions ...

Simulated effects of microgravity, created by 60 days of constant bed rest, severely disrupts rhythmic gene expression in humans, according to a new study from the University of Surrey. Astronauts ...

Serious health issues could potentially become show stoppers for longer missions to the moon and Mars, so scientists are working hard to understand more about the health issues long distance ...

Researchers say the findings highlight the need for further investigation as space agencies prepare for longer missions to ...

As a former NASA mission planner, I would signal a "no-go" for human colonization of the moon and Mars. The human body's functions cannot tolerate the long-term effects ...

Scientists examined brain MRI scans of astronauts and found microgravity causes upward and backward brain shifts, which gradually take months to recover after returning to Earth.

A recently published study by University of Florida researchers provides insight into how beer yeast might behave when fermented in outer space. While the concept may initially sound trivial, it has ...
