orphan date February 2009 The SpaceStation Mobility Trainer or SSMT is a training simulator used to train astronauts who will be staying in space stations. In a spacestation , there is no gravity, and therefore, there is no difference between up and down. Astronauts need to know where objects should be placed and oriented while building a spacestation. The SSMT rotates the trainee on a single axis in a small loop . Grip tape as used on skateboards or stairwells is placed strategically throughout the loop to prevent slipping. The trainee is strapped into a chair mounted on a rotating axis Vertical direction vertical The astronauts run in this continuous loop and are flipped over repeatedly. Then the trainee stops suddenly, and must figure out where everything is. Trainees on this particular simulator usually will become disoriented. Category International SpaceStation ... more details

The SSBRP s goal is to study the development, life cycle, and behaviour of certain organisms in the environment of outer space. For each studied organism, a specialized habitat device is to be constructed. These include The Advanced Animal Habitat , for individually or group housed rat s and mouse mice The Plant Research Unit , housing Arabidopsis thaliana and specialised wheat The Aquatic habitat , for various organisms including Zebrafish The Insect Habitat , studying Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies The Avian Development Facility , for research involving the eggs of Japanese Quail The Cell Culture Unit , to investigate several microorganism s, as well as to grow tissue cultures from humans, animals, and plants. Once flight qualified, habitats also referred to as subrack payloads would be carried to the SpaceStation aboard a Space Shuttle housed in the Orbiter Middeck , and transferred to a specially designed Habitat Holding Rack , which would provide them with the cooling air, power, and data connections required. On station, the habitats could also be housed in a centrifuge module that could simulate gravity with a magnitude between zero and two times that experienced on earth . When astronaut station crew needed to add or remove specimens, or perform certain other work, a habitat would be transferred to the Life Sciences .... To date, none of the SSBRP s payloads have been flown to the International SpaceStation, in part due to an interruption in Space Shuttle flights after the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster .
