Astronaut won't let gravity's ill effects bring him down
Fri May 17, 2013
- Maybe the old spinning wheel concept for a space station was the way to go after all. But, how would it house microgravity experiments? There are plenty of unknowns yet in long duration space flight medicine. Check the article at Wikipedia: (link) "Visual impairment due to intracranial pressure".
Why sign up for a one-way Mars trip? Three applicants explain the appeal
Sun May 19, 2013
- Can the human body stay alive and functioning well for very long periods of time in 38% gravity? What about gestation in 38% gravity? So, what is known about Martian space-medicine--nothing, maybe? How about eyesight problems? (See the Wikipedia article (link) Visual impairment due to intracranial p …
No. 1 swimming pool problem? It's number two!
Thu May 16, 2013
- Sounds like bidets at swimming pools would be a good idea--and some education. Gross! I looked up (link) Bidet at Wikipedia then looked at 2 U.S. companies mentioned. One of them, (link) USABIDET, had this comment on their home page: "Deep down, Americans have always known that wiping their rears wi …

The Soviet Union dissolved itself in a series of steps in December 1991--the last one being the self dissolution of the Supreme Soviet on December 26. SpaceX has a target of 2015 for a human-rated version of the co …
Cleveland kidnap victims thank supporters, plead for privacy

- Here's a comcept you need, Steve. Epistemology: the philosophic science that studies the nature, scope, and means of human knowledge. The field is justified because of two obvious facts: humans are not omniscient and are fallible.
'Worst years of my life': For mother of another missing Cleveland woman, the wait goes on
Fri May 10, 2013
- Yes, this disappearance has Castro written all over it. I expect the investigators see it too and will work as hard as they can. Maybe something will turn up in the stuff that the FBI took from the house. The girls evidently had not seen her and it seems unlikely that Ashley could have been at the h …

Fri May 10, 2013
- <b>3-4 days in a hospital for a mental health issue?</b> Maybe, but I've never heard of doing that. I recall that, when released from the house, she had some kind of physical complaint and medical help was called right then.
