Abstract

The physiological effects of weightlessness are discussed, as they were measured and reported by the Russian cosmonauts. The possibilities of adaptation to space environment by training and the mechanisms of compensation and vicarization (adaptive substitution) of the analyzers and processes of the biological entity are considered. The authors present recommendations for cosmonaut training for distant and prolonged flights.
