Altitude Physiology Training

Altitude Physiology is a core component of Suborbital Scientist Training. During Altitude Physiology training, future Space Scientists experience hypoxia to learn and understand their bodies' unique reactions for future recognition of dangerous hypoxic situations.

The NASTAR Center Altitude Chamber takes trainees up to 40,000 feet during this course and can accommodate 12 trainees in its main compartment and 4 trainees in the Rapid Decompression compartment.
