Organisms have evolved in Earth's static gravitational environment. It is not surprising that exposure to altered gravitational environments can extensively alter the regulation of physiology and behavior. Indeed, numerous ground and flight studies have shown effects of altered gravity on a myriad of systems, including nervous/ocular, endocrine, muscle, bone, cardiovascular, metabolism, circadian, sleep, immune, mammary metabolism, reproductive, etc, reviewed by Wade 2005 and recently by Afshinnekoo et al, 2020.
