Abstract:
The limitations of the currently used exercise-based counterm easures and the scientific rationale for the gravity-based countermeasures are a ddressed.Then,an overview of the physiological effects and requirements for th e two types of artificial gravity (AG),i.e.,the continuous AG provided by full -time spinning of the entire space system/habitat and the intermittent AG by i nco rporating a short-arm centrifuge into the spacecraft,is presented.Finally,sig nificance and challenge faced in future research on biochemical problems of arti ficial gravity are discussed
