Collaborate With HRP

HRP uses research to develop methods to protect the health and performance of astronauts in space.

HRP has identified five hazards of human spaceflight: space radiation, isolation and confinement, distance from Earth, gravity (or lack thereof), and hostile or closed environments.

HRP has identified specific risks associated with the five hazards of human spaceflight.

Explore timelines of how HRP is buying down specific risks faced by astronauts during spaceflight.

The Human Research Roadmap provides an overview of the risks and knowledge gaps that HRP associates with human spaceflight.

Explore ongoing human health investigations performed in low Earth orbit.
