Data from Skylab missions related to tissue loss in space were analyzed. Significant changes in gross body composition occur during spaceflight, these include: alterations in water balance resulting from headward shifts of fluid, loss of musculoskeletal tissue, and alterations in fat depending upon the balance between caloric intake and energy expenditure. An effort was made to control the more essential components of body weight on the Skylab missions.
