Spaceflight osteopenia refers to the characteristic bone loss that occurs during spaceflight . Astronaut s lose an average of more than 1 bone mass per month spent in outer space space . There is concern that during long duration flights, excessive bone loss and the associated increase in serum calcium ion levels will interfere with execution of mission tasks and result in irreversible skeletal damage. ref name NASA http science.nasa.gov headlines y2001 ast01oct 1.htm Space Bones . NASA Science News. October 1, 2001 ref History Bone loss has been noticed at least as early as Project Gemini Gemini . Although most early measurements of the amount of bone loss were not reliable, they did show bone loss in Gemini, Soyuz 9 , Apollo program Apollo , Skylab , Salyut 7 , Mir , and the International Space Station .

TLS L alignment right fixed on This is a timeline of known spaceflight s , both manned and unmanned, sorted chronologically by launch date. Owing to its large size, the timeline is split into smaller articles, one for each year since 1951. There is a separate list for all flights that occurred before 1951. The CURRENTYEAR list, and lists for subsequent years, may contain launches which have not yet occurred. For the purpose of this article, a spaceflight is defined as any flight that crosses the Karman line , the officially recognised edge of space, which is convert 100 km mi Above mean sea level AMSL .
