Jesus christ that can’t be healthy long term, doesn’t microgravity lead to losses in bone and muscle density?
The average stay on the iss is 6 months, with the longest being nearly a year. They know how to deal with the effects of these things, so it’s not going to be a huge problem.
Yes, but the iss has dedicated exercise stations that help slow down the loss
That’s good, so honestly it’s just trying to stay sane on what was originally a short week or so trip, here’s hoping they didn’t have any plans for the holidays.
