When astronauts return from prolonged space flights, they often suffer from bone loss, resulting in brittle bones that may take weeks for their bodies to rebuild. One solution may be to expose astronauts to periods of substantiai"g forces" in a centrifuge carried aboard their spaceship. To test this approach, NASA conducted a study in which four people spent 22 hours the in a compartment attached to the end of a 28-foot arm that rotated with an angular speed of 10.0 rpm.
