CHINA, IN ORDER TO DEVELOP ITS OWN MANNED SP.?CE FLIGHT INDUSTRY,
FORMALLY ESTABLISHED THE SPACE FLIGHT MEDICAL ENGINEERING RESEARCH
INSTITUTE ON 1 APRIL 1968. THE SPACE EN'.'IRONMENT IS BASICALLY
DIFFERENT FROM THE EARTH SURFACE ENVIRONMENT AND ATMOSPHERIC
ENVIRONMENT. THE TASK TO SAFEGUARD MAN I^,~ THE SPECIAL SPACE
ENVIRONMENT IS NOT ONLY PROVIDING AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH EQUIPMENT
AND INSTRUMENTS CAN WORK NORMALLY, IT IS ALSO NECESSARY TO PROVIDE A
SPECIAL ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS MAN TO LIVE AND WORK, THE
LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM. THIS LATTER SYSTEM IS THE RESEARCH MISSION OF
THE SPACE FLIGHT MEDICAL ENGINEERING RESEARCH INSTITUTE.
THE RESEARCH INSTITUTE IS UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF THE WELL KNOWN
SCIENTIST, QIAN XUESEN AND USED SYSTEMS ENGINEERING THEORY AND
METHODS TO RESOLVE A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS IN THE LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM
AND SPACE FLIGHT SERVICE DEVELOPMENT IN THEIR RESEARCH OVER A NUMBER
OF YEARS. THEY HAVE TRAINED A CORPS OF MEDICAL ENGINEERS AND HAVE
ESTABLISHED AN EXCELLENT FOUNDATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHINA'S
SPACE FLIGHT INDUSTRIES.
IN MEDICAL ENGINEERING RESEARCH FOR MANNED SPACEFLIGHT, THE
SCIENTISTS AND TECHNICIANS OF THIS INSTITUTE ARE, ON THE ONE HAND,
CATCHING UP WITH WORLD ADVANCED LEVEL AND, ON THE OTHER HAND, MAKING
THE BEST OF OUR OWN STRONG POINTS, IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIND A NEW PATH
FOR SPACE FLIGHT MEDICAL ENGINEERING IN CHINA WITH CHARACTERISTICS
BASED ON CHINA'S ACTUAL CIRCUMSTANCES. IN THE PREVENTIVE MEDICINE
AREAS OF MOTION SICKNESS AND BONE CALCIUM LOSS IN SPACE, NOISE AND
RADIATION HAZARDS, ETC. BASED ON THE PRIMARY CONTRADICTION IN THE
SPACE MEDICINE PROBLEM BEING MALADJUSTMENT, AND THE PRIMARY
CHARACTERISTIC OF CHINESE MEDICINE BEING ADJUSTMENT, WE ARE
POSITIVELY APPLYING THE THEORY AND METHODS OF OUR TRADITIONAL
MEDICINE (CHINESE MEDICINE, CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE, QIGONG A SYSTEM
OF BREATHING EXERCISES, ETC.) AND HAVE ATTAINED PRELIMINARY RESULTS.
THIS TYPE RESEARCH METHOD HAS GAINED INTERNATIONAL INTEREST. AT
PRESENT, THIS INSTITUTE IS CARRYING OUT EXPANSION AND INTERNATIONAL
EXCHANGES AND COOPERATION.
