A recording I made in 1984 of a BBC channel documentary.
Tomorrow's World was a great series. So many good presenters including Peter Macann and the legendary James Burke. At Large was an extention series with more in depth reports about topics.

Here's the information as seen in the Radio Times magazine for this program:
Warning: space can damage your health Peter Macann reports from Houston, Texas, on the sinister side of space travel.
Weightlessness produces puzzling effects in the body. Some, like space sickness, are merely uncomfortable; others affect the astronaut's heart, muscles and bones. They may even cause permanent damage. The race to find solutions is now more urgent after President Reagan's announcement that NASA will launch a manned space station in 1992. Peter Macann risks life, limb and lunch as he
-floats weightless
-spends a day seeing backwards
-and is strapped into a washing machine all in an effort to decide whether space flight too should be given a government health warning.

Another good one if you are interested in space medicine is the HORIZON; ZERO G documentary you can also find on my channel.
