The Human Health and Performance in Space Portal is an informal collection of articles, sites and pages discussing the effects of space flight, travel and habitation on astronauts and other space flight participants. The topics presented within these articles are based upon the Evidence Book provided by National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Human Research Program which is essentially a brief review article, written for a scientifically-educated, non-specialist reader. Contributions and participation by medical professionals, scientists, researchers, students and the public at large is greatly encouraged.

This portal features studies of interest to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a private, nonprofit corporation founded under the auspices of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS). Institutional membership includes more than 100 colleges and universities, most in the United States of America. For this effort, USRA is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Human Research Program.

The studies presented here focus on research conducted on NASA vehicles (Skylab, Space Shuttle, International Space Station), on Soviet and Russian space stations (Salyut program, Almaz, and Mir), and in terrestrial laboratories that shed light on human health and performance in space.
