    Summary

    Space motion sickness (SMS) and readaptation syndrome share symptoms. Multiple theories explain these conditions, suggesting interrelated mechanisms rather than a single cause for space travel discomfort.

    Area of Science:

    • Space Medicine
    • Neuroscience
    • Human Physiology

    Context:

    • Spaceflight poses unique physiological challenges to astronauts.
    • Space motion sickness (SMS) and post-flight readaptation syndrome are common issues.
    • Understanding these syndromes is crucial for astronaut health and mission success.

    Purpose:

    • To review the symptoms of space motion sickness (SMS) and readaptation syndrome.
    • To discuss various etiological and pathogenetic theories of SMS and readaptation.
    • To explore the interrelationship between different causative mechanisms.

    Summary:

    • Symptoms of SMS and readaptation syndrome are described, affecting astronauts in orbit and upon return.
    • Theories including sensory conflict, vestibular function, and fluid circulation disorders are examined.
    • No single theory fully explains SMS; mechanisms are likely interrelated and complementary.

    Impact:

    • Provides a comprehensive overview of space motion sickness and readaptation.
    • Highlights the complexity of spaceflight-induced physiological responses.
    • Informs future research into mitigating space travel health risks.
