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.

      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.
