An understanding of the effects of hypergravity on energy homeostasis is necessary in managing proper physiological countermeasures for aerospace missions. This study investigated whether a single or ...

Altering gravity force can modify the three-dimensional spatial environment inside living animals that are adapted to earth’s gravity. This may have deleterious effects on biological processes such as ...

NASA’s Artemis II mission launch on April 1, 2026. With space flight poised to become more common, experiments to understand hypergravity will likely only become more relevant. Expose an animal to ...

A team of students from the SCK•CEN (Belgian nuclear research centre) located in Mol, Belgium, began their hypergravity research campaign at ESA’s Large Diameter Centrifuge (LDC) at ESTEC on 27 ...

If you`ve ever wanted to experience the sensation space shuttle astronauts feel during liftoff and landing – or if spinning around in circles all day inside a large NASA centrifuge is your idea of a ...

Expose an animal to extreme physical stress, and the expectation is simple: It will break down. But when UC Riverside scientists subjected fruit flies to forces many times stronger than Earth's ...
