Lockheed Stabilizer System for Space Exercise Equipment

Abstract

Through the use of computer animation, the Lockheed Stabilizer System for spaceborne exercise equipment is shown. A bicycle mounted onto a shuttle floor demonstrates the range of vibrations that occur without the Lockheed Stabilizer. There is animation of the stabilizer system's tests and normal protein crystal growth in microgravity environments. Actual short clips of astronauts exercising in space are also presented.
