Muscle deterioration, extreme bone loss, crippling imbalance, weaker cardiovascular systems are typical signs of aging that take approximately thirty years to develop on Earth, but occur in just a few months in a weightless space capsule. NASA scientist William J. Evans developed the programme that prevents this accelerated ageing from happening in space for the planned space flight to Mars.
