Orbiting Frog Otolith experiment (OFO-A): Data reduction and control experimentation
The OFO-A mission was prepared as a part of a special program of vestibular physiology with the purpose of studying in which way the lack of the gravity pull will affect the functioning of that part of the labyrinth which controls balance. The gravitational components corresponded to the different head positions, namely, the gravity sensitive or positioning receptors. It is evident that in weightlessness the gravity sensitive receptors are deprived of their primary input.
