  Human sustainable space exploration could go further with the development of strategies and preparatory activities. Enormous scientific work has been done during the 21st century. MARS-500 project is one of unique preparatory activities, and was finished within 520 day isolation on the Earth. The full 520 day MARS mission simulation provided an opportunity to conduct a long-term, isolated experiment to observe metabolic changes due to people differences and its stability to duration variation. Six volunteers were selected from Russia, France, Italy, and China, and their urine specimens were collected in six periods. Then the subtle metabolic variations were investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) at six different periods. We found that the m.. Read More»
