ABSTRACT
The development of research responsible for evaluating the physiological
adaptation of the human being in the weightless environment of
space is filled with challenges. The field of biological sciences in microgravity
conditions is closely linked to human exploration of space.
There is an adaptive response that helps to explain the phenomena
of adaptation of human physiology in microgravity situations, in this
work the most significant changes are set in response to the adaptation
in microgravity.
