    • Human physiology
    • Space medicine
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • Space travel presents unique environmental stressors.
    • Astronaut health and performance are critical for mission success.
    • Understanding psychophysiologic responses is essential.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify psychophysiologic alterations associated with space flight.
    • To review existing literature on human stress responses in space.
    • To propose a role for space nursing in astronaut care.
