【 摘 要 】

Changes the gravity has a significant affect on the immune system.Astronauts experience the gravity changing during spaceflight, especially whenlaunching and landing they experience hypergravity, and during spaceflight they feelmicrogravity. Both hypergravity and microgravity has an impact to the immune system,but not the same effect. These impacts have been investigated extensively duringspaceflight in astronauts and in model experiments conducted on Earth as well.Astronauts during spaceflight feel the hypergravity, psychological stress, fear, highdoses of radiation and microgravity. All these factors and changes may affect immunesystem directly or indirectly.
