Online ahead of print.Note: From the abstract: “Publicly available National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) footage of astronauts ambulating on the Lunar surface was examined using body pose analysis software. Goniometric lower limb joint/torso angles and width of base of stance and gait were derived. Gait cycle stance phase, swing phase, double support time, and estimated speed of gait were all computed.” This article may be obtained online without charge.
