Proven Performance
KBR GmbH has partnered with the ESA European Astronaut Centre (EAC) at every stage of the ESA Space Medicine Team’s (SMT’s) more than 20-year journey to implement a complete European concept of space medical operations for ESA astronauts. This has helped the agency develop independent expertise, directly contribute its resources, and know when to rely on the support of other partners.
- Provides space medicine operations to the ESA Space Medicine team
- Coordinates education and training of future space medicine professionals
- Networks KBR colleagues worldwide to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and experience for unique space medicine projects (e.g., NASA funded Bed Rest studies at the DLR Institute of Aerospace Medicine’s :envihab facility)
