sysD Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 What are some adverse health effects that may occur from long term exposure to an environment with increased g-forces? Most of us know that there are deleterious effects to human physiology in microgravity environments, but what about the opposite? Hypothetical: Sam is spending his vacation on Jupiter, where he weighs roughly 2.6 times as much as he does on Earth. What effects to his body can be expected? I know this is a very broad question, so please just throw things out there. Everything from digestive issues to compression of CSF. Thanks.
