Without gravity, extended space flight to potential planets in other galaxies will never take place.

While I love science fiction, I cringe whenever I watch a movie where passengers awaken after years long hibernation and get out of their pods and start walking around....Their muscles would have become so deteriorated that they couldn't move...........

Oh well, that's why they call it science fiction....LOL!

ESA has conducted many bedrest studies...

ESA = European Space Agency.

When I saw that one of their projects is in Slovenia, I thought maybe our government was getting involved. Because Melania.
