MEET THE CREW-8
Crew-8 is the eighth operational astronaut mission SpaceX has carried out for NASA to the International Space Station.
The four crew members - Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, Jeanette Epps, and Alexander Grebenkin - are participating in Expedition 71 to conduct a wide range of experiments for six months.
Investigations conducted during Expedition 71 include examining brain organoids to understand neurodegenerative disorders, monitoring how body fluids shift during spaceflight, and scrutinizing the effects of UV radiation and microgravity on plant growth.
Select crew are also participating in a suite of studies called the Complement of Integrated Protocols for Human Exploration Research (CIPHER), which aims to help scientists understand how prolonged periods in space can alter the human body

TECNO-3 SYSTEM ROTOR
Sidi Sport joins the NASA expedition with the Tecno-3 System rotor, used as a closure system for venous-constriction cuffs worn by astronauts on their thighs.
Designed to counteract the effects of microgravity on the human body, their use is intended to trap fluids in the legs and thereby reduce the fluid volume in the head, which may prevent potential changes to eye structure and vision.
Known collectively as Spaceflight Associated Neuro-ocular Syndrome (SANS), these changes pose a known risk during long periods in space.
The cuffs could also help treat patients on Earth who suffer from fluid accumulation in the head caused by specific pathologies or by long periods of bed rest.

FOR NASA, BY SIDI
To allow the crew to adjust and close the cuffs, Sidi's Tecno-3 rotor was designed to be a reliable, efficient system and compatible with the levels of technical readiness required for spaceflight operations.
Composed of a high-intensity resin rotor with a Dyneema® cable, it allows for micrometric and yet differentiated closure, for absolute adaptability to the circumference of the body concerned.
