The experience of space missions shows that functional disorders in crewmembers on the type of space motion sickness (SMS) may develop on the initial stage of flight. Longer exposure in micro-g causes a wide range of debilitative changes in the vital body systems. Artificial gravity produced by spacecraft rotation might be a universal tool to counteract the impacts of prolonged microgravity on the human body. However, the significance of SMS does not become less high because of a new factor, i.e. the rotating environment. Research system Jupiter 2 is a stand-alone slow-rotating ground facility for simulating motion sickness equivalent to its space form. The merits of this facility are the possibilities to control the intensity of exposure, perform long-term investigations of two active subjects simultaneously, and study the stages of body adaptation to this agent, and assess physical and operator's performance. The facility carries large expectations to occupational selection.
太空任务的经验表明，在飞行初始阶段，航天员可能会出现类似太空晕动病（SMS）的功能紊乱。长时间处于微重力环境会使人体重要系统发生一系列使人衰弱的变化。航天器旋转产生的人工重力可能是抵消长期微重力对人体影响的通用手段。然而，由于新因素即旋转环境的存在，太空晕动病的重要性并未降低。木星2号研究系统是一个独立的慢速旋转地面设施，用于模拟与太空形式等效的晕动病。该设施的优点在于能够控制暴露强度、同时对两名受试对象进行长期研究、研究身体对该因素的适应阶段，以及评估身体和操作人员的表现。该设施在职业选拔方面寄予厚望。
