Author Topic:   Solarium on the space station (Vitamin D) Solarplexus Member Posts: 107 From: Norway Registered: Jan 2014 posted 04-07-2015 01:45 PM             I am just wondering if there is a solarium (small, UV-lightbulb) at the International Space Station since a important source of D vitamin is the skins production of this vitamin in response to the sunlight (UV-light), or do the astronauts and cosmonauts get all their D vitamin need only through food, beverages and/or pills?
