Ok, you space cadets…no one has figured out how to combat the effects of lack of gravity on the human body. I mean how many Iron Woody Bands would someone have to use in order to keep his body from completely atrophying?
How long can a human live in space before his bones become so brittle that they will snap at the slightest increase in gravity – or even acceleration and deceleration of moving vehicles?
Have fun in living in your tiny space bubbles.
Morans!
There is the most hilarious bit of physics completely lost on you, but since BackInAction else has already pointed it out I won’t say it. (Hint: gravitational and inertial mass (read acceleration) are the same thing!).[/quote]
I understand the equivalence principle, Einstein – and what is “inertial mass” exactly???
Sit down and don’t make me swat you with my ruler.
Listen up class!
Man is not going to “outer space” to live. EVER. There are too many technological limitations – the limits of the human body, notwithstanding.
