Abstract
Space medicine is a very vast subject ... indeed since it concerns all human medicine adapted to the very speci ic space environment. Space is a particularly aggressive environment for the human body adapted to live on Earth. For more than twenty years, following the creation of space stations, MIR irst and then the International Space Station (ISS) men (3 to 6) live and succeed each other permanently at about 300 400 km altitude to do scienti ic experiments. The purpose of this intervention was to explain what space medicine really is through its experience as an astronaut physician and to understand how this medicine can be useful and have spinoffs for Earthmen.
