Kidney stone formation and passage has the potential to greatly impact mission success and crewmember health for long duration missions. Alterations in hydration state (relative dehydration) and bone metabolism (increased calcium excretion) during space travel may increase the risk of kidney stone formation and it is unclear which mitigation strategy would be the most effective in the context of mission operations.
