Abstract
Living with microgravity and in confined conditions in space has a profound influence on human life. Colours, shapes and movements are the visual stimuli of an ergonomic investigation aimed at increasing the habitability of spacecraft. Taking into account that orientation in microgravity is achieved only visually, now that the vestibular system has become silent (Mallowe 2001), astronauts have to rely upon the visual design of a spacecraft for both their orientation and well being (Schlacht 2008).
