The USAFSAM is “an internationally renowned center for aerispace medical learning, consultation, aerispace medical investigations and aircrew health assessments” according to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Pictured is a human centrifuge, where Air Force training takes place.

In this area of the USAFSAM, individuals are able to train in simulated altitude and environmental conditions.

The manequins utilized during training are of similar height and weight of real human beings.
