文摘Dear Editor,As space exploration transitions from short orbital missions to extended stays on the International Space Station(ISS)and,ultimately,interplanetary travel,astronaut health has emerged as a critical focus.In particular,safeguarding cardiovascular function has become an operational imperative.Yet beyond safeguarding those in orbit,the physiological adaptations observed in microgravity offer a compelling lens through which to examine persistent challenges in terrestrial medicine,from orthostatic intolerance in the elderly to deconditioning in critical care survivors.By studying how the human cardiovascular system functions in the absence of gravity.
