Description:
|
Fluid distribution during spaceflight and impact on brain and vision health is an emerging field of high-priority research in the NASA human space programme. International Space Station astronauts have developed ocular refraction changes during prolonged spaceflight. Within this book, experts review current data related to fluid shifts during microgravity exposure and the impact of fluid shifts on astronaut health.
