List of Study Groups

ad 1) Welcome address by the chair – introduction of the participants andpresentation of study group titles

ad 2) Dr Fomina outlines the study groups

#2.12 - P. Nosrk has sent to NASA incl. the request of more information –details are available directly from P. Norsk

#2.14 – no formal report available!

Dr. Orlov comments on it:

- Potential management problems / no-co-chairs available- During the week of IAC potential discussion should be done for further

clarifications- A pot. Proposal for new study groups can be "Evaluation of interplanetary

Missions"- In mid-October a face-to-face meeting should be held; thereafter the paper

will be finished and submitted as study group proposal. It will include a

2

detailed analysis of ISS as well as Mars 500 data. The results will besummarized and are the basis for future guidelines.

#2.15 & 2.17 N/A

ad 3) HIS 2019

Input by Dr. Orlov / potential topics:

1. Bedrest as a space flight model – data can also compared and applied toother modelsystems

To get more groups involved, during the ISLSWG an announcementshould be given, concerning standardization of measurements appliedduring the bed rest studies.

2. Dr. Graef added:Bedrest studies should be seen in combination with artificial gravityexperiments and developments – these topics should be focused by IAAand use the IAA platform for publication of data obtained.

The access to the int. community regarding the combination of severalgroups in respect to standardization should be discussed during theISLSWG Meetings.

- All topics should be "put on the table" during the IAA meeting inMarch 2019.

- In addition, studies in Antarctica should be addressed to combinethem into the overall context.

- ISS has to be seen as an extended platform- After standardization as outlined above, the access to ISS is of

utmost importance to propose future planetary missions.- Parallel studies organized by IBMP+DLR+NASA Houston have to be

envisaged for the near future on the above topics.

Back to HIS 2019

- The minutes of the telecom with the UAE representatives will bedistributed (open action) and delivered to IAA

- The date for HIS 2019 was agreed during the telecom – details will bepresented during the IAA/IAF Joint Meeting!

- Dr. Graef intensively pointed out that it is necessary to have enoughUS colleagues being present at HIS 2019 – this should be discussedalso during the upcoming ISLWG meeting.

- US colleagues should be also in the sci committee present

3

- Very important is to review the US HRP, which US colleagues are inthe funding scheme of NASA!

- In addition members from China and Japan should be in the scicommittee too

- The scientific committee should give guidelines for the HIS 2019program including relevant round tables etc.

Dr. Fomina proposed that after the Joint Meeting a list of topics should beprepared and send to Dr. Polasky (NASA) for improvement if necessary

The participants discussed some potential themes for the HIS 2019 – no finaldecision was made!
