Human space research gets a boost from retired NASA centrifuge

Wait 5 sec.

Texas A&M University is preparing for a new era of space research with the launch of a research centrifuge at the Anthony Wood '87 Artificial Gravity Lab. Set to become one of the most advanced human centrifuge facilities in the United States, the lab can simulate lunar and Martian gravity for extended periods of time, allowing researchers to test how changes in gravity affect the human body.
