Abstract:
The transition of an astronaut into zero gravity leads to a certain restructuring of the body, including the redistribution of fluid flows in it. The process of dehydration of the body is stimulated, the astronaut loses weight. Knowledge of the regularities of changes in an astronaut's body weight, keeping it within normal limits thanks to a rational load distribution, rest, physical exercises, and a well-thought-out diet are extremely necessary in order to provide the astronaut with the most favorable conditions for adaptation in zero gravity, as well as to better prepare him for his return to Earth. Returning materials for scientific research and experiments, as well as equipment, from the space station to Earth also requires high-precision determination of the low weight of objects. The object of the research is an experimental unit that allows measuring the weight (parameters) of the astronaut’s body and the small weight of objects (equipment, devices, etc.) that oscillate. The subject of research is the frequency of natural oscillations of the dynamic system. The purpose of scientific work is the development of an experimental unit for determining the weight of the astronaut’s body and the low weight of objects in zero gravity. Conclusions. An experimental setup for determining the body weight of astronauts and the low weight of objects (control objects – СО) in zero gravity is proposed. For high-precision determination of the weight of the СО in zero gravity, the natural frequency (NF) was chosen as a diagnostic parameter. In the experimental installation, the weight of the OC is determined by changing the NF of the dynamic system "control object – moving anchor" depending on the attached weight of the СO. The essence of the work of the experimental unit is revealed, and its general appearance and structural scheme are presented.

Abstract:
It is necessary to conduct virtual training for astronauts on the ground to improve the efficiency and safety of astronauts carrying objects in space. Cooperation between the two astronauts is required when handling massive objects. During this process, it is necessary to obtain the operating force of each astronaut. The research purpose of this paper was to propose an algorithm to map the astronaut’s operation on the VR handle to the human–machine interaction force without the robot’s participation, thereby saving costs. In this paper, a virtual robot simulation model is established, while the controller is designed based on the inverse system method. The virtual human–machine interaction force was obtained based on the inverse dynamics method. The influence of different parameters on the final position of the virtual object was analyzed. The physical engine was integrated into the virtual force sensor to ensure that the human–machine interaction forces of multiple astronauts can be coupled. The results showed that the virtual human–machine interaction force is similar to the real one and has a low output noise (approximately 5.5 N). This force can be applied to astronaut collaborative virtual training.

Abstract:
In a human-robot communications problem in which a mobile robot and an astronaut are required to work together to maintain network communication, it is possible for the mobile robot and the astronaut to have multiple courses of actions to restore communications if it becomes disrupted. To effectively accomplish a team's mission, a human supervisor responsible for monitoring and supervising the terrestrial activities of mobile robots and astronauts in this domain needs useful decision aiding tools in order to identify productive courses of action. Motivated by this, we propose a visualization framework based on Gibsonian-based fields for representing a mobile robot and an astronaut's possible action strategies to maintain their network communication in a continuous and dynamic environment and for graphically representing bounds on actualized action strategies of the robot and the astronaut based on their possible action strategies. The authors submit that it is not sufficient simply to calculate all the possible actions of the mobile robot and the astronaut. It is equally important to provide interfaces that reveal affordances in the domain in a manner that delineates the length and breadth of action opportunities and human perceptual and physical capabilities. We present a simple conceptualization of the problem of robot-astronaut communication in order to develop a framework for analysis that can be generalized to multiple robots and astronauts communicating to meet multiple objectives.

Abstract:
ObjectiveStudies of mortality among US astronauts are complicated by the healthy worker effect, which predicts lower mortality for astronauts than the general population based solely on the ability to become and remain an astronaut. We attempt to evaluate astronaut mortality risk while accounting for the healthy worker effect.MethodsWe compare mortality rates of male US astronauts with those of professional athletes from Major League Baseball and the National Basketball Association between January 1, 1960 and May 31, 2018.ResultsBoth athlete cohorts and astronauts had significantly lower-than-expected mortality in comparison with the general population. For the overall study period, there were no significant differences in all-cause mortality rates between astronauts and athletes. Astronauts were at greater risk of death from external causes (SMR=583; 95% CI 377 to 860) and reduced risk of death from cardiovascular disease (SMR=39; 95% CI 18 to 73) and all natural causes (SMR=67; 95% CI 47 to 93).ConclusionsThe data presented here do not support increased mortality for astronauts due to unique exposures received in space. The mortality experience of astronauts as compared with professional baseball and basketball players should be re-examined periodically as part of the ongoing surveillance of astronaut mortality in years to come.

Abstract:
Japanese astronauts started staying at the International Space Station (ISS) in 2009, with each stay lasting for approximately 6 months. In total, seven Japanese astronauts have stayed at the ISS eight times. As there is no law for protection against space radiation exposure of astronauts in Japan, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) created its own rules and has applied them successfully to radiation exposure management for Japanese ISS astronauts, collaborating with ISS international partners. Regarding dose management, JAXA has implemented several dose limits to protect against both the stochastic effects of radiation and dose-dependent tissue reactions. The scope of the rules includes limiting exposure during spaceflight, exposure during several types of training, and exposure from astronaut-specific medical examinations. We, therefore, are tasked with calculating the dose from all exposure types applied to the dose limits annually for each astronaut. Whenever a Japanese astronaut is at the ISS, we monitor readings of an instrument in real-time to confirm that the exposed dose is below the set limits, as the space radiation environment can fluctuate in relation to solar activity.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Whether the unique environment of space affects astronaut risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is not known. On Earth, it is known that use of combined oral contraceptives (COCs) doubles the risk of VTE. Since some female astronauts choose to use COCs, this retrospective study examined known risk factors associated with VTE risk to determine whether the available data suggested elevated VTE risk in female astronauts.METHODS: Longitudinal health data were requested for female astronauts who flew short and long duration missions between 2000 and 2014. Pre- and postflight hematological and biochemical blood markers were available and evaluated. Astronauts’ postflight measurements were compared to clinically relevant terrestrial high risk levels to determine any trend toward increased risk for VTE following spaceflight. Secondarily, a comparison of pre- and postflight changes was made, as well as an assessment of COC impact.RESULTS: A total of 38 astronaut-flights were included in this study and no VTE events were found. Analysis of potential VTE risk factors showed no evidence suggesting elevated VTE risk in female astronauts associated with spaceflight, regardless of contraceptive use.DISCUSSION: Arguably, all astronauts encounter many physiological stressors during spaceflight missions, but women using the combined contraceptive pill add a known risk factor for VTE. The risk factors analyzed within this study showed no trend toward an increased risk of VTE for female astronauts. This study provides an evidence base supporting the safety of COC use by female astronauts and also reinforces the importance of healthy lifestyle on VTE risk reduction.Jain V, Ploutz-Snyder R, Young M, Charvat JM, Wotring VE.

In this study, the researchers focus on the meaning of the DECADE album cover from They Fell From The Sky music band. This was chosen because the artwork used is quite attractive and has This study uses qualitative research with a descriptive method. The analysis was carried out using the semiotic theory of Roland Barthes and the pragmatics theory of John Searle. This study aimed to determine the meaning contained in the cover design of the DECADE album. This research shows that between context signs and visible signs, there is a relationship where the two synergize in the title. The band, namely "They Fell From The Sky," by using a skull image that uses an astronaut costume in an iconic, denotative, and connotative symbolizing "death," a form of death because "falling from the sky" so the message to be conveyed is to publish the Decade album which for ten years or "a decade" like struggling until astronauts in outer space experience death as if falling from the sky. The Astronaut's skull artwork entitled in Indonesian "Binasa" ("Perish" in English) which is the basis of the DECADE album cover design, also strengthens this interpretation. Keywords: Album cover, Semiotics, Pragmatics.

Abstract:
The application of intravehicular robotic assistants (IRA) can save valuable working hours for astronauts in space stations. There are various types of IRA, such as an accompanying drone working in microgravity and a dexterous humanoid robot for collaborative operations. In either case, the ability to navigate and work along with human astronauts lays the foundation for their deployment. To address this problem, this paper proposes the framework of simultaneous astronaut accompanying and visual navigation. The framework contains a customized astronaut detector, an intravehicular navigation system, and a probabilistic model for astronaut visual tracking and motion prediction. The customized detector is designed to be lightweight and has achieved superior performance (AP@0.5 of 99.36%) for astronaut detection in diverse postures and orientations during intravehicular activities. A map-based visual navigation method is proposed for accurate and 6DoF localization (1~2 cm, 0.5°) in semi-structured environments. To ensure the robustness of navigation in dynamic scenes, feature points within the detected bounding boxes are filtered out. The probabilistic model is formulated based on the map-based navigation system and the customized astronaut detector. Both trajectory correlation and geometric similarity clues are incorporated into the model for stable visual tracking and trajectory estimation of the astronaut. The overall framework enables the robotic assistant to track and distinguish the served astronaut efficiently during intravehicular activities and to provide foresighted service while in locomotion. The overall performance and superiority of the proposed framework are verified through extensive ground experiments in a space-station mockup.

Tem por objetivo propor um modelo tridimensional de análise de agravos à saúde e riscos de acidentes, a partir do modelo bidimensional de Funtowicz & Ravetz (1994 e 1997). Ao adicionar uma terceira dimensão, da vulnerabilidade, buscou-se incorporar a incerteza e complexidade nas análises e gerenciamentos dos problemas ocorridos com os indivíduos ou grupos potencialmente excluídos ou enfraquecidos. Os objetivos específicos foram, mediante ao novo modelo proposto: a) analisar os riscos de acidentes e incidentes; e, b) analisar os agravos à saúde presentes na organização do trabalho da aviação civil brasileira. A proposta metodológica utilizada, para tanto, passou por observações do trabalho real desenvolvido pelos aeronautas; aplicação de entrevistas semi-estruturadas; conversas com especialistas; coleta de dados epidemiológicos; levantamento dos dados sobre acidentes; e, identificação da posição dos países no Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano (IDH). Dentre os achados, descobriu-se que existe uma correlação negativa (r=-0,84; p menor ou igual a 0,01) entre o número de aeronautas e os acidentes aéreos. Foi descoberto, ainda, que uma quantidade maior de acidentes aéreos ocorre em países com mais baixo desenvolvimento (p=0,007). Verificou-se, também que uma prevalência maior de casos de acidentes ocorreu entre o grupo de países em desenvolvimento, talvez, por estes tentarem incorporar os modelos dos países desenvolvidos, sem no entanto, ter plenas condições para isto. O estudo mostra ainda a maior ocorrência de problemas de saúde em função da divisão social e sexual do trabalho. Além disto, foi discutido, a partir das observações in loco e fala dos aeronautas, os interesses dos grupos envolvidos com a aviação civil e que podem interferir na segurança a saúde dos trabalhadores.O estudo conclui, que alguns grupos parecem "enfraquecidos", pelo qual torna-se fundamental compreender como as relações sociais incorporam a interação desta vulnerabilidade com vários outros elementos e como isto pode repercutir sobre a saúde e segurança dos indivíduos.

Abstract:
In these lyric-narrative poems, the speaker is under constant threat of violence, trouble, danger, or death, but that death is never realized. Rather, the speaker, much like many of the lives in the desert, not only survives amidst the constant threat of violence, but flourishes because of it; the interior landscape of the speaker, the tenor of the language and syntax, and exterior landscapes implied in these poems are mirror surfaces, and as such, so are we. Despite the exterior world and relationships being arguably broken down, failed, impoverished, abandoned, etc., these poems gesture toward a sense of redemption, hope, reverence for life, and a kind of holiness that are found in the church of the desert. It has been said that the desert is monotheistic; if this is the case, then the speaker and the lives in these poems, despite being hardened by the desert, sing hymnals that celebrate that faith. There is a church in the wild.

In spaceflight, the loss of mechanical loading has detrimental effects on the musculoskeletal system. These muscular changes will likely affect spinal loading, a key aspect of vertebral fracture risk, but no prior studies have examined how spinal loading is affected by long duration spaceflight. Moreover, the effect of spaceflight on vertebral strength has not been determined, despite reports of significant vertebral trabecular bone loss in long-duration astronauts. Thus trunk muscle and vertebral bone changes and their impact on risk of injury following long-duration spaceflight remain unknown. This is of particular concern for NASA's planned Mars missions and return to Earth after prolonged deconditioning. Our lab has developed a musculoskeletal model of the thoracolumbar spine that has been validated for spinal loading, but has not yet been extended to maximal effort activities or full-body simulations.
Thus, the overall goal of this work consisted of two main sections: 1) address the knowledge gap regarding spaceflight and post-flight recovery effects on trunk muscle properties, vertebral strength, compressive spine loading and vertebral fracture risk, and 2) extend our musculoskeletal modeling work into maximal effort simulations in an elderly population and create a full-body scaled model to investigate reproducibility of spine loading estimates using opto-electronic motion capture data. Whereas deficits in trunk muscle area returned to normal during on-Earth recovery, spaceflight-induced increases in intramuscular fat persisted in some muscles even years after landing. Similarly, spaceflight led to a decrease in lumbar vertebral strength that did not recover even after multiple years on Earth.
To gain insight into the effect of spaceflight on vertebral fracture risk, we created subject-specific musculoskeletal models using an individual's height, weight, sex, muscle measurements, and spine curvature. We found that compressive spine loading was minimally affected by spaceflight and that vertebral fracture risk, calculated as a ratio of vertebral load to strength, was slightly elevated post-flight and remained elevated during readaptation on Earth. Additionally, we focused on the development of additional musculoskeletal modeling tools. Using maximal effort model simulations, we estimated trunk maximum muscle stress in an elderly population, and this critical parameter in musculoskeletal modeling will assist with more detailed model creation. Lastly, we found excellent reliability of spine loading estimations from opto-electronic marker data.

As taxas de morte no trabalho na classe de trabalhadores assalariados é maior que o verificado nas classes de profissionais liberais. Neste cenário, a prevalência de acidentes e doenças do trabalho é um indicador da desigualdade socioeconômica e cultural existente na população. Por isso, pode-se dizer que a saúde do trabalhador é um problema de saúde pública, questão que exige atenção e ações mediadoras e reguladoras do Estado. A literatura sobre a estabilidade emocional e as condições de saúde do piloto de aeronaves mostra as condições de risco em que operam os pilotos. Há uma perspectiva de análise bastante forte na literatura científica que trata dos aspectos ergonômicos e fisiológicos destes trabalhadores que muitas vezes os reduzem a componentes redundantes dentro da grande complexidade tecnológica existente na aviação moderna. As bases técnicas e históricas que induziram a sociedade a construir as regras que formalizam as responsabilidades relativas ao trabalho do piloto devem ser compreendidas no estudo destes trabalhadores sob uma ótica sistêmica e interdisciplinar. O contexto age como uma pressão invisível que desgasta a saúde destes profissionais. Os fundamentos da tecnologia da informação e da ergonomia são muitas vezes negligenciados, podendo gerar disfunções operacionais na execução das tarefas, causarem acidentes, perturbar o trabalho e a saúde tanto dos pilotos como de outros aeronautas como os controladores de vôo. A sociedade se apresenta nos tempos de hoje impondo duras regras que visam prioritariamente a lucratividade das Empresas aplicadas em um cenário permeado por regras trabalhistas e tecnológicas imperfeitas. Neste cenário transitam os trabalhadores da aviação onde emergem a profissão de piloto e o instrumento de trabalho chamado avião. Estas normas trabalhistas são fontes de sofrimento. Estas foram as principais conclusões do estudo realizado que utilizou como método de análise uma abordagem sistêmica, com apoio de um modelo de análise de acidentes sob forma de um sistema computadorizado desenvolvido pelo autor tendo se mostrado apropriado para enfrentar a complexidade do problema em questão

Abstract:
Through a literature study, this paper examines the lunar rover ergonomics and design from an industrial design perspective, considering the history of the lunar rover, the astronauts' experience, human factors, sustainability, and rising industry standards.By analyzing the upcoming missions, the terrain, and previous rovers, this paper identifies a set of criteria and proposes a concept for the seating design of the next-generation lunar terrain vehicles, focusing only on unpressurized vehicles.The Lunar Terrain Vehicle requires a human-center design process and an understanding of the astronauts' critical needs during the operation. The seating needs to accommodate the suited astronauts, restrain the astronauts without interfering with their mobility, and provide stability during the traverse. The industry expects the new vehicles to last in extreme environments for many years; the new design must be lightweight, durable, and practical.Despite being subject to change by many influencing factors out of the designer's control, this paper presents a unique process emphasizing the ergonomics and usability of the astronaut that can serve as a guideline for future lunar rovers for exploration and commercial purposes. The proposed design concept provides safety and comfort to the astronauts during the EVAs while accommodating the environmental requirements.The industrial design perspective in this study highlights the benefits of a multi-disciplinary approach in the space industry. Beyond exploration, the human space flight endeavor demands more than functionality. The future of spaceflight is sustainable, safe, and more human-centered than ever.

Abstract:
“Spazio allo Spazio", active since 2010, involves students aged 5 to 20. This educational project was launched by a group of Italian teachers from the Lower Secondary School Fermi in Villasanta who believed Space exploration could be an efficient way to convey the idea that the extraordinary experience of the astronaut, who on the International Space Station must acquire new skills and be able to dominate a challenging and unpredictable context, similar to a disabled person's routine in daily life. This was a winning choice because gradually international institutions promoted similar initiatives. The central theme of space exploration is used to promote values of sustainability, equity and diversity, allowing students to become acquainted with the world of astronauts while facing subjects related to integration and disability. Several national and international universities and institutions, at the forefront of scientific research, have contributed to this project. The main topics of the project are: 1) Space exploration: the astronaut's experience is the starting point for lessons, cultural exchanges, lectures and interdisciplinary strategies to raise awareness about humans in space, the international cooperation for the International Space Station, physical training, technical, scientific and cultural preparation. 2) Career orientation: meetings with experts in different fields, from Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics to Arts and Physical Education, help students achieve better knowledge of themselves, their potential and limits acquiring skills in scientific research methodology in a multilingual environment. 3) Inclusion: as astronauts experience the limits of gravity and disability in Space, students can face their limits, through experiences of adapted physical activity, addressing issues related to the integration and insertion of people with different skills in school and society. 4) Team building: starting from the example of collaboration which takes place in space missions and scientific research, students are encouraged to experience teamwork. This is true for the teachers too, thanks to the strengthening of cooperative teaching, in the sharing of resources and good practices as well as in the implementation of innovative forms of communication and multimedia documentation. The project aims at making students able to face new and more advanced educational challenges and cognitive objectives, developing work strategies by transferring already tested approaches and processes to new situations. This is noticeable in the more self-conscious choices that former students have made about their future. An example is illustrated by an ex-student who directed his training path in the Science and Engineering field

Abstract:
Loss of muscle mass due to reduced mechanical loading is a critical issue for long duration spaceflight on the International Space Station (ISS) [1]. To address this issue, NASA has developed the Advanced Resistive Exercise Device (ARED) that allows astronauts to perform resistance exercise on the ISS. To minimize force transmission to the ISS, the ARED is mounted to a vibration isolation system (VIS). During squat exercise, ARED rotates relative to the ISS, functioning like a nutcracker to compress the astronaut with a load provided by two vacuum cylinders. Though the ARED is an effective exercise countermeasure device, the extent to which squat exercise on the ISS achieves Earth-equivalent muscle moments remains unknown.

Abstract. PANGAEA (Planetary ANalogue Geological and Astrobiological Exercise for Astronauts) is a field training course designed by the European Space Agency (ESA) that, since 2016, has imparted to ESA and NASA astronauts, and Roscosmos cosmonauts the basic theoretical and practical knowledge of geology and astrobiology and trained them in the field. Hence developing independent field skills, including working with a remotely located science team, is a key part of the training. For this reason, classroom and field lessons are tightly interwoven so that the concepts introduced in the classroom are shown in the field soon afterwards. The primary field sites selected for the course are the Permo-Triassic sedimentary sequences in the Italian Dolomites, analogue to the Martian alluvial plains ones, the impact geological environment of the Ries Crater, Germany, a comprehensive suite of volcanic emplacements and deposits in Lanzarote, Spain, and the anorthosite outcrops, analogue to lunar highlands rocks, in Lofoten, Norway. Each site is used as a base to deliver the main learning sessions, respectively: 1) Earth geology, rock recognition and sedimentology on Earth and Mars, 2) Lunar geology and impact cratering, 3) volcanism on Earth, Moon, and Mars, and astrobiology 4) intrusive rocks and lunar primordial crustal evolution. The four sessions are designed to increase the trainees’ autonomy in the field up to autonomously executed geological traverses including sampling activities. Whilst PANGAEA’s primary focus is astronaut training, where appropriate, technologies being developed for future missions are used to evaluate their performances in analogue field envi-ronments and to train the astronauts in using technologies that might support future missions.

Abstract:
No treinamento de astronautas, uma das capacitações básicas para a sobrevivência no espaço, consiste na adaptação em um local com gravidade "0", e uma das formas de realizar essa preparação, é em um túnel vertical com um ventilador de alta potência na sua base. Na engenharia de controle, existe a preocupação em colocar os alunos em contato com as problemáticas encontradas no dia-a-dia, na indústria e mercado de trabalho, neste caso, construindo um protótipo de túnel de vento vertical a fim de controlar a posição de um corpo de prova livre, simulando um astronauta em treino. A pesquisa quantitativa prioriza o apontamento numérico da frequência e intensidade do comportamento do sistema, utilizando de ferramentas matemáticas e computacionais, extrai com confiabilidade os resultados numéricos do arquétipo. A pesquisa qualitativa relaciona-se com os resultados, em compreender determinados comportamentos, logo, será factível analisar e entender os dados obtidos. Desenvolveu-se uma planta para aplicação de técnicas de controle, observou-se dificuldades na construção de uma planta real e a implementação de estratégias de controle. O controlador ficou conservativo, sendo assim mais sensível as variações de posição do corpo de prova, melhorando a robustez e desempenho, alcançando o objetivo.

Abstract:
In the practice of a teacher-psychologist at the School of Distance Education, the game “Sign me up as an astronaut”, developed by the author, was tested, aimed at developing the skills of social and psychological interaction in younger adolescents with disabilities through the awareness and strengthening of personal resources by means of game psychocorrection. The specifics of the work of a psychologist at the School of Distance Education are determined by the following circumstances: - students have a severe disability and the corresponding psychophysical characteristics: instability of the emotional-volitional sphere, lack of motivation, severe physical and mental fatigue, low level of social skills, etc. - the use of distance educational technologies in psychocorrectional work; - lack of methodological recommendations for psychocorrectional work in conditions of distance technologies with school-age children. Such recommendations are available mainly for adults, they relate to the educational process, but they do not cover the correctional process. There is enough scientific and methodological literature on psychological and pedagogical correction, which is the basis for ensuring the work of a practicing psychologist, but there are difficulties in transferring these techniques, games, etc. - to the remote mode of correctional and developmental work, especially in the form of group work. During the game, various social and psychological situations are solved, which are selected strictly according to the characteristics of the social experience of the participants.
