Скачать или смотреть How Gimbal Rigs Prepare Astronauts for Losing Control in Space 🛰️

In space, losing control can happen in seconds.

A spacecraft that begins to spin can quickly become dangerous, affecting orientation, communication, and decision-making. To prepare for this, astronauts train using gimbal rigs — multi-axis mechanical systems that simulate the rotational motion of a spacecraft in distress.

During these simulations, astronauts experience intense disorientation while learning how to remain calm, maintain spatial awareness, and regain control under pressure.

This training ensures astronauts are ready not just for launch —
but for the unexpected moments that define a mission.
