Between 1997 and 1981 , three groups of Americain Women , numbering 27
in all , between the ages of 35 and 65 ,were given month-long tests to
determine how they would respond to conditions resembling those aboard
the space shuttle. Though carefully selected from among many
applicaints, the women were volunteers and pay was barely above the
minimum wage. They were not allowed to smoke or drink alcohol during
the tests and they were expected to tolerate each one 's company at close
quarters for the entire period .Among oter things , they have to stand
pressure three times the force of gravity and carry out both physical and
mental tasks while exhausted from stenuous physical exercise. At the end
of ten days, they had to spend a further twenty days absolutely confided to
bed, during this time they suffered backaches and discomforts, and when
they were finally allowed up, the more physically women were especially
subject to pains due to a slight calcium loss. Results of the least suggest
that women will have tosignificant advantages over men in space. They
need less food and less oxyfen and they stand up to radiation better. Men's
advantages in terms of strength and stamina , meanwhile, are virtualy
wiped out by the zezo-gravity-condition in space.
