ORTHOSTATIC FUNCTION DURING ENTRY, LANDING AND EGRESS
DSO 603C
In-Cabin

Prime: John Glenn Principal Investigator: J. B. Charles, Ph.D.
Backup:


Overview
This investigation will document the relationship between mission duration and changes in orthostatic function of crewmembers during the actual stresses of entry, landing, and egress from the seat and from the cabin.

These data will be used to determine whether precautions and countermeasures other than (or perhaps instead of) the operational saline countermeasure are needed to protect crewmembers in the event of an emergency egress.
