Abstract
Mature rats were exposed to chronic centrifugation at 2 g for 60 days. A rail test was utilized to quantitatively evaluate equilibrium behavior in a static and dynamic situation after return to the earth standard 1g environment. Exposure to chronic centrifugation was shown to significantly alter equilibrium behavior. The 2 g animals showed greater disequilibrium than 1 g control animals under both static and dynamic situations. The differences between the two groups increased under more dynamic test conditions. A mechanism is suggested to account for these differences.
