Satur day, November 10, 2012, 7:00 p.m. Peterson Auditorium—Starr 207 Dean Siconolfi
is a former Senior Research Scientist at NASA's Johnson Space Center.
He will present a lecture that covers the physics of microgravity,
how astronauts complete acts of daily living, and physiological
adaptations to and after spaceflight. In addition, he will address an
area of his own research about exercise countermeasures currently in use
on the International Space Station to help keep astronauts
fit for duty on the space station, and possible future missions to the
Moon or Mars. After the presentation, a Russian countermeasure space
suit from his personal collection will be on view.
