A person adapts to the state of weightlessness in orbit faster than then again to gravity.
Even today, when various programs have been developed for the rapid recovery of astronauts, the effects of weightlessness are felt for quite a long time.
In search of ways to protect astronauts from such impacts, mass spectrometry is used.
This is a method from the young science of proteomics, which studies proteins that are synthesized in our body.
Specialists of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Skoltech conducted an experiment, as a result of which they discovered proteins responsible for the restructuring of the body's work in weightlessness.
Perhaps in the future it will help to create a tool that will solve all human problems with maintaining health in space.
