This activity gives students diagrams of the Advanced Resistive Exercise Device (ARED), which allows the crew of space shuttles to maintain their bone strength, muscle strength, and endurance in spite of the zero-gravity environment. They will draw free body motion diagrams from these and apply pressure, force, and torque equations.
