It is still unknown whether bone recovers completely. Unlike people with osteoporosis, astronauts eventually regain their bone density. [citation needed] After a 3–4 month trip into space, it takes about 2–3 years to regain lost bone density. [citation needed] New techniques are being developed to help astronauts recover faster. Research on ...

Records involving animal spaceflight have also been noted in earlier experimental flights, typically to establish the feasibility of sending humans to outer space.
