What Would Happen to the Human Body in Zero Gravity?

šŸ’” The Answer

  • Astronauts experience muscle atrophy and bone density loss during prolonged microgravity.
  • Bodily fluids shift upward, causing facial puffiness and reduced leg volume.
  • The spine expands, temporarily increasing height by several centimeters.
  • Without gravity, the sense of balance is disrupted, leading to space motion sickness.
