  • For over fifty years, humans have lived in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), aboard Skylab, Salyut, Mir, the International Space Station (ISS), and China's Tiangong space station. Humans survive within the protective Van Allen belts; beyond them, in altered gravity, they face hazardous deep space environments.
  • Deep-space missions present significant operational risks to interplanetary probes and robotic systems, worsened by the great distances and extreme conditions they must endure.
  • Terrestrial medical technologies and procedures adapted for use in the harsh environment of an Exploration Class Space Mission (ECSM) may still result in death or increased morbidity of one or more crew members.

    • Adapting centuries of Earth-based medical knowledge and technology to support humans on an ECSM to the Moon and Mars presents many unique medical challenges.
