  • To be more precise: almost 40 years spent in low Earth orbit studying, well, zero-G nausea and sundry cosmic mysteries.

  • This and only this will someday allow humans to extend their stays in a zero-G space environment beyond the current six-month limit.

  • Or better yet -- They can rename the whole zero-G system (seat & all (doesn't it have a butt-washer?)):

  • We already know the preferred method of spinning humans in a ground-based experiments that simulate zero-G, related to allowed head movements, completely diminishes spatial disorientation.

  • I hope he chooses one related to his unmatched physical abilities related to spinning the body in a zero-G environment without getting sick.

  • The only alternative is intermittent exposure to short-radius artificial gravity which has already been proven to effectively work on ground-based zero-G simulated environments with out making people sick.

  • Discovery mission specialist Mike Barratt said Kopra's "booming zero-G laughter was missed, and hinted that the crew had a surprise to honor his participation in the mission."

  • If humans demonstrate spinning themselves in zero-G without getting sick like they have done countless times in ground experiments, NASA is one step closer to finding a way to stop bone loss using artificial gravity in a zero-G space environment without making people sick in space.

  • We already know that intermittently spinning humans in ground-based experiments that simulate zero-G result in decreased bone loss compared to not spinning them.
