ESA Study Details Human Adaptation to Spaceflight Conditions

The European Space Agency's Exposome Signature experiment has provided a multi-system analysis of how astronauts adapt to spaceflight. The research tracks physiological changes in inflammation, immune function, metabolism, and gene activity before, during, and after missions. By comparing astronauts with submariners, the study identifies unique space-induced changes, which is vital for medical planning for future long-duration space exploration missions.
