The picture is dedicated to the work of Soviet medical scientists who studied how stresses that are unknown under ordinary earthly conditions affect a living organism: overloads during exit from the atmosphere, a state of weightlessness, oxygen starvation. Experiments were first carried out on animals: dogs and rats, and later people also participated in the experiments.
