The Dangers of Weightlessness and Its Solutions
from Everything Everywhere Daily: History, Science, Geography, & More · host Gary Arndt
The human body was built for gravity. Take it away, and bones weaken, muscles shrink, fluids shift, and even vision can change. For astronauts spending months in orbit, zero gravity isn’t just strange; it is one of the greatest obstacles to living and working in space. Yet there are solutions. It might be a matter of exercise, or, in the future, the solution may be to create artificial gravity by spinning a spacecraft.
