Former astronaut on lunar spacesuits: "I don't think they're great right now"
摘要
前宇航员凯特·鲁宾斯在向美国国家科学院委员会陈述时指出,NASA“阿尔忒弥斯”计划的宇航员登月任务将是一次“极限身体挑战”。相比五十多年前的阿波罗任务,宇航员需穿着更重的宇航服并执行更多任务。鲁宾斯概述了登月任务中宇航员面临的健康风险,包括辐射暴露、肌肉骨骼退化、心血管与免疫功能下降等航天飞行带来的负面医学影响。
Crew members traveling to the lunar surface on NASA's Artemis missions should be gearing up for a grind. They will wear heavier spacesuits than those worn by the Apollo astronauts, and NASA will ask them to do more than the first Moonwalkers did more than 50 years ago.
The Moonwalking experience will amount to an "extreme physical event" for crews selected for the Artemis program's first lunar landings, a former NASA astronaut told a panel of researchers, physicians, and engineers convened by the National Academies.
Kate Rubins, who retired from the space agency last year, presented the committee with her views on the health risks for astronauts on lunar missions. She outlined the concerns NASA officials often talk about: radiation exposure, muscle and bone atrophy, reduced cardiovascular and immune function, and other adverse medical effects of spaceflight.
