quotes:
In the wake of plans by President George W Bush to put a man on Mars, and a rival European effort, a £13 million project to launch 15 "mouse-tronauts" has been announced that will provide a stepping stone for the ambitious manned missions.
Astronauts living on space stations have encountered serious health problems such as bone loss and muscle wasting due to their weightless environment.
"The only data that we have for partial gravity comes from the Apollo astronauts who spent a couple of days on the surface of the moon."
President Bush has announced plans to return man to the Moon by 2020 in preparation for manned Mars missions.
