Space/Science » in reply to Bone loss in weightlessness

There was supposed to be an ISS experiment

There was to be a small centrifuge for testing animals for effects of micro gravity. I haven't heard if it has been scrapped.

I have always felt fairly confident that .3 G would be sufficient to maintain bone density and overall health with the right excercise regime. There is a big difference in weighing 70% less and weighing zero.
