How does space travel affect your eyes? ๐ #shorts
There is no point in sending human explorers on long voyages around the solar system if they arrive at their destination in poor physical shape. Long stays in zero gravity are not good for the human body.
We already know that astronauts lose bone mass at around 1% for every month they are in space; muscles – including heart muscles – atrophy despite hours of exercise; and there are a host of other problems.

Wouldn't it be possible to try and reduce the fluid pressure on the upper body, particularly the head, by applying a kind of a tight necklace? I know it sounds strange, because the astronauts will feel like being strangled, but if the necklace would have the right form, it could apply pressure to the carotid and reduce blood pressure on the head party, for instance. It might not avoid all the issues with fluid but might be something to try and improve?

Flattening of eyeball? Is it permanent? Wouldn't it be beneficial for myopic people – sending them to space? ๐
This a major problem. The ability to see is obviously important. But temporary?
Keep smiling, it suits you! ๐
Sounds not very good, i gues than for now it is goodbye for human traveling to other planets
I think it would actually help myopia. But I donโt think weโve had fully myopic astronauts yet who require glasses 24/7 – not just for reading. Another reason why we need astronauts with disabilities before we start venturing off into deep space.
i guess humans have to go through an adaption state for such situations, as DOMS might effect one but if steady time provided with monitoring and certain sustainable measures to deal can help
The fact that it doesnt affect everyone should be a positive sign, maybe the threshold for high blood pressure is just lower in space, and they need to take meds to compensate
Flattened in what way? Does it make them shortsighted or longsighted?

Or we could simply stay on earth
