Space Shuttle Promgram provided, for the first time, access to hundreds of crew members flying aboard dozens of missions to observe the physiological, behavioral, and performance effects of weightlessness, isolation, confinement, and taks-related challenges associated with space flights lasting as many as 18 days in low-Earth orbit. This program also required the development of unprecedented approaches for maintaining the health, safety, and operational readiness space crew members to perform their challenging duties effectively and effictemly. Biomedical flight test requirements were completed in the following areas: physiological adaptation to microgravity, cabin acoustical noise, cabin atmospheric evaluation, radiation dosimetry, crew exercise equipment evaluation, and a cardiovascular deconditioning countermeasure assessment.
