Let’s face it, going to space is havoc on the human body. We evolved in an Earth environment, over hundreds of millions of years; so take away the Earth environment and things start going a little awry.
Why is everything clickbait? I know some communities have rules about keeping the original headline as written but I don’t know any that have rules against putting a meaningful description in the post itself. Do you get commission from clicks or are you just trying to collect worthless internet points? I really don’t understand the mindset of some posters.
And in a particularly grotesque downside to spaceflight, after performing an extravehicular activity (EVA), more commonly known as a spacewalk, a surprising number of astronauts’ fingernails just… fall off.
I thought that was rather interesting and I had never heard that before. Apparently most people agree with you and don’t find it interesting. That’s perfectly fine.
I also find that interesting, but what I don’t find interesting is the title or description of your post; that’s what he’s complaining about, not the content of the article.
The title is the title and I use whatever the first paragraph is. If you don’t like it then downvote and move on or just move on. I thought the article offered interesting information that other people might like. If you don’t that’s perfectly fine.
I guess it’s because of the radiation (I didn’t read the article of course)
Oops, nope :“When the gloves are pressurized, they restrict movement and create pressure points during tasks, sometimes resulting in pain, muscle fatigue, abrasions, and occasionally more severe injuries such as onycholysis. Glove injuries, both anecdotal and recorded, have been reported during EVA training and flight persistently through NASA’s history regardless of mission or glove model.”
Nope. You’re not going to get me to click to read about some gross fingernail thing.
They fall off
I DIDN’T WANT TO KNOW!
