the Centrifuge, which simulates artificial gravity, it is planned to install the new module on the International space station. As the Director of the Institute of biomedical problems of RAS Oleg Orlov, the corresponding contract has been signed between the IBMP and Rocket and space Corporation Energia.

Able to create artificial gravity centrifuge of short-range specialists IBMP has already been created, the scientist noted. In the future, experts plan to develop a model of a centrifuge that could be used aboard the ISS, to develop it and then create a “final” version based on a transformable module. So far, experts are considering how to implement their respective technology space, as well as on methods the use of a centrifuge.
the Lack of gravity for a long time is one of the problems now faced by members of the ISS crew, and in the foreseeable future can be faced by astronauts during long-term flights to other planets. As a recent study conducted by experts from the University of California at San Diego, the astronauts who spent on the International space station from 3 to 7 months, a long stay in microgravity has led to a significant reduction of mass and area of paravertebral muscles, and as a result a back pain, which persisted even some time after returning to Earth.
we will Remind, Oleg Orlov also announced that Russia and the American space Agency NASA have agreed to jointly conduct isolated experiments, which aim at training of Russian and American crews for future missions to other planets. Experiments, the duration of each ranging from several weeks to a year, in the aggregate will be held for five years.
