Project Title:

Development of a Gyroscope Model to Encourage Astronauts’ Physical Exercise

Project Objective:

To develop an innovative gyroscope model that motivates astronauts to engage in physical exercises in enjoyable ways, while also improving resource efficiency through green projects.

Challenges:

Maintaining physical fitness and health during long missions.
Reducing environmental impact.

Expected Outcomes:

Enhanced physical fitness and mental health of astronauts.
Reduced stress levels.
Improved environmental resource efficiency.

Recommendations:

Develop motivational strategies to ensure regular use of the model.
Implement green projects to improve resource efficiency.

Project Significance:

Improve astronauts’ health.
Support sustainability in space.

Tools and Technologies Used:

Digital manufacturing techniques.
Advanced sensors.
Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis.
Regression analysis and factor analysis.

Research Methodology:

Design and development of the gyroscope model.
Field experiments to analyze the model’s performance.
Environmental studies to improve resource efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
Data collection and analysis to provide detailed reports on user status and system performance.

Ethical Considerations:

Obtain informed consent from participants.
Protect participants’ privacy and data.
Ensure transparency in presenting information about the study and its objectives.

Challenges Faced by Astronauts:

Muscle and bone weakening due to lack of use in a weightless environment.
Reduced heart efficiency in pumping blood due to microgravity conditions.
Increased stress and anxiety levels due to isolation and psychological pressure during long missions.

Impact of Exercise in Space:

Improved physical fitness and muscle strength.
Enhanced mental health and reduced stress and anxiety levels.
Improved blood circulation and heart efficiency.
