How does space travel effect your body? 🧑‍🚀 #shorts

Like every other living creature we know of, humans evolved at the bottom of a gravity well. We take the Earth's tug for granted, and so do our bodies. So it's not surprising that our bodies behave oddly in orbit. What is surprising is that humans turn out to adapt remarkably well to zero-g (more precisely, microgravity).

I believe one day most people in the world will understand the benefits of space exploration and the studies of human body in microgravity.

"Being confined in a small space" isn't good for surface-bound humans either. I wonder if having much larger space vessels would help - if spacefarers were 'parkouring' around?

Thank you. Human need to explore will ensure whatever the hurdles are, there is always a way.

Astronauts are heroes to the sacrifice they do for a better life and treatments for people on Earth risking their life in Space. Even those on the grounds who prevent those in Space to have problems by controlling step by step their missions, and engineers controlling the flight’s materials as rockets. That’s a chain of solidarity in work…

But wait isn't life on the ISS perfectly fine? The gravity is a bit weaker but they float because they're moving so fast, and radiation is similar to Earth? Or am I wrong

Let's fix our home planet before we embark on the pointless ambitions of billionaires.
