Workshops
Increase awareness of NASA's Life Sciences Program within the science community and to examine and discuss potential uses of microgravity and other aspects of spaceflight.
http://www.mbl.edu/CASSLS/workshops.html

Extractions: Early workshops explored the potential use of microgravity as a tool for gaining new insights into fundamental questions of molecular, cellular, neuro-, developmental and plant biology. Special attention was directed at examining the impact gravity and its control have on biological processes, and how variations in gravity can be utilized as a probe to better understand such processes. More recent workshops have focused on specific flight opportunities and a new focus on experiments of particular relevance to questions of human biology in the spaceflight environment. Most of our workshops result in Publications in order to broadly inform the science community.

Howstuffworks "How Weightlessness Works"
Introduction to How Weightlessness Works, Encountering microgravity, How You Feel in microgravity, Countermeasures, How You Sense Position and Motion
http://science.howstuffworks.com/weightlessness.htm

Extractions: We have often seen pictures of astronauts floating around inside the space shuttle International Space Station or Mir . While weightlessness looks like fun, it places great demands on your body. Initially, you feel nauseated, dizzy and disoriented. Your head and sinuses swell and your legs shrink. In the long term, your muscles weaken and your bones become brittle. These effects on your body could do severe damage on a long voyage, such as a trip to Mars In this edition of HowStuffWorks , we'll take you on an extended journey aboard the International Space Station, where we will examine what weightlessness is, what happens to your body, how these changes come about and what can be done to prevent or reverse these adverse effects.

This discovery supports theoretical arguments that shock waves from stellar explosions may be a primary source of cosmic rays. The Marshall Center manages the Chandra program.

Contact Us On March 11, 2005, The National Center for Space Exploration Research on Fluids and Combustion (NCSER) was formally approved by NASA as the new name for The National Center for Microgravity Research on Fluids and Combustion. This name change was made to better reflect the current emphasis on mission enabling research work that NCSER performing. As NASA moves forward implementing the President's Vision for Space Exploration, the entire resources of NCSER, which include some of the nation's top scientists in the area of Fluid and Combustion research in low gravity, will be directing their efforts toward development and design of advanced space systems for human and robotic missions.

Extractions: MCL is a NASA-funded research facility in the Department Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley , aiming at studying the potential onset of fire in environments encountered in spacecraft. The research goals are to better understand and predict material flammability, combustion products, and other fire-safety related phenomena in reduced gravity environments. Research focuses on experimental investigation, theoretical analysis and computational simulations. Some of the experiments are conducted in microgravity facilities, including drop towers, parabolic flights, Space Shuttle and in the future in the International Space Station. The objective of this project is to predict smoldering and the transition to flaming of foams, composite and cellulose materials in conditions expected in space based facilities. It includes experiments in normal gravity and in microgravity the latter will be conducted aboard the International Space Station.

Space Station | The Station | Living In Space
All the deleterious effects of living in microgravity disappear after an astronaut returns to ground. Some can be countered while in orbit by special diet
http://www.pbs.org/spacestation/station/living_microgravity.htm

Extractions: living in space The Continuing Challenge of Microgravity Many of the problems that arise from living and working in space have been resolved. However, the physiological affects of weightlessness are still not completely understood. Among these are the leaching of certain minerals from bones; atrophy of muscles when not exercised; and space adaptation syndrome, a form of motion sickness found only in spaceflight. All the deleterious effects of living in microgravity disappear after an astronaut returns to ground. Some can be countered while in orbit by special diet and exercises. But even a vigorous exercise program does not appear to stop bone loss, or the decrease in the rate of normal bone formation. NASA is engaged in a long-term program to understand the causes underlying these changes, in order to develop ways to prevent them. This will be particularly important for the longer tours of duty on the Space Station, where crew members will be in orbit for three months or more at a time. back to the top *Click on images for captions

Extractions: The CADMOS centre was created in 1993 at CNES, in Toulouse, in order to support all French manned flights performed on-board MIR station or shuttle spacecraft. The expertise of CNES Space Station Utilisation division teams linked to CADMOS include PVH mission on-board Salyut-7 in 1982, 6 French-Russian missions on-board MIR station from 1982 to 1999, 51-G and LMS missions on-board US Shuttle in 1985 and 1996 and one French-Russian mission on-board the International Space Station in 2001. These missions are those for which CNES/CADMOS teams have been responsible for all aspects of preparation, realisation and certification of payloads and related scientific experiments realisation, together with the mission operations themselves.
