Comment on Microgravity-induced muscle atrophy: Implications for long-duration spaceflightsparent

Comments

To echo some of the points from the aurora book, I think that the human body is really well optimised for 1G environments. We know that there are issues in zero gravity. As you adapt to 2G, you may well get stronger but the stress and strains may have a severe effect on health, life expectancy. Hate to think about the effects on your blood pressure etc

Your great grand kids might eventually cope.
