Primate studies performed during a two week space flight on board Cosmos biosatellites are discussed. These experiments have made an important contribution to resolving many tasks of space biology and medicine. Using sophisticated equipment and the subtlest methods it was possible to assess some quantitative changes in the functioning of the vestibular system, blood shifting in the body, in the dynamics of parameters of muscular function, and in metabolic changes. This allows not only a control of changes in a living organism during the initial flight stage, but a gain of greater control over adaptation to weightlessness.
