All body systems function in synergy with this unseen force. Yet, as we journey further and longer into space, our bodies must conform to a new reality, wherein gravity is absent or reduced, cosmic radiation threatens and our social and familial connections become distant. Into Space: A Journey of How Humans Adapt and Live in Microgravity gives an overview of some of the physiological, anatomical and cellular changes that occur in space and their effects on different body systems, such as the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal, and touches on cultural and psychosocial aspects of leaving behind family and the safety of Earth. It further addresses the complexity of manned space flights, showing how interdisciplinary this subject is and discussing the challenges that space physiologists, physicians and scientists must face as humans seek to conquer the final frontier. 517 $aInto space 606 $aSpace flight$xHealth aspects 610 $aEngineering 610 $aPhysical Sciences 610 $aEngineering and Technology 610 $aAeronautics 610 $aAerospace Engineering 615 0$aSpace flight$xHealth aspects. 676 $a629.4 700 $aThais Russomano$4auth$01364227 702 $aRussomano$b Thais 702 $aRehnberg$b Lucas 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910317816103321 996 $aInto Space$93385473 997 $aUNINA
