Preflight training may help prevent space motion sickness by adapting astronauts to altered sensory input. This paper reviews adaptation trainers and research, including the Miami University Seesaw and dynamic simulators.

Area of Science:

  • Space Medicine
  • Human Physiology
  • Aerospace Engineering

Background:

  • Space motion sickness is a significant challenge for astronaut health and mission success.
  • Current countermeasures for space motion sickness are limited.
  • Preflight adaptation training is a promising strategy to mitigate space motion sickness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the concept and research behind preflight adaptation trainers for space motion sickness.
  • To explore the otolith reinterpretation and its role in adaptation.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of various prototype adaptation trainers.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of preflight training concepts and research.
  • Analysis of otolith reinterpretation principles.
