Numerous studies have shown significant effects of weightlessness on adaptational processes of the CNS. Most of these studies have been carried out during parabolic flights, using the recurring 20s periods of weightlessness during each parabola. The continuous change in gravity between 1.8G, 1G and 0G can contribute to a potentially stressful situation for subjects during parabolic flights. While some authors have a attempted to explore the influence of this stress, so far there seems to be only limited information about objective parameters of stress, evoked by parabolic flights. In this study we correlated physiological and psychological data to determine the subjects' state during the course of a 1.5 hrs parabolic flight and its impact on motor control.
