The Artificial Gravity Lab

video

In preparation for sending humans on long trips into space, Brandeis University scholars have been working since the 1980s to create environments that simulate artificial gravity.

The Ashton Graybiel Spatial Orientation Laboratory (aka artificial gravity lab) is a rotating room. In the video shown above, we see a visitor become adapted to being in the space.

Our thanks to recent BrainU participant Chris Bouska for sharing this video with us.
