We all know the pictures of the astronauts on the ISS floating around. We also suspect that a lack of gravity is bad for the body as the muscles go weak and such.
Why don’t spaceships just rotate to cause the effect of artificial gravity through centrifugal forces?
🤨️ we’re talking 6 months travel time here, what do they mean by “prolonged exposure”
idk, but later they posit the minimum size of the spin station should be no less than 25m radius to achieve gravity without making the astronauts have to deal with motion sickness.
