Keeping Astronauts Fit: How Muscle and Exercise Research is Key to Space Health
Maintaining peak crew health in the challenging environment of space is a top priority for NASA. The International Space Station (ISS) was a hub of activity focused on muscle and exercise research. Astronauts face a unique challenge: the absence of gravity leads to muscle atrophy and bone loss, making daily, rigorous exercise—two hours a day—essential to counteract these effects and ensure readiness for Earth's gravity.
