 Yesterday I saw a video and I even posted it here about it @jb55! The brothers and of course, twins, are participating in a guided journey (experiment) through #NASA, to know the effects of space - or rather, the absence of gravity in the human body, in just one year in space. The main idea is to understand the effects of this exposure and then predict what can happen in the mission to Mars.

But you must be wondering what this intersects with your grade?! Well... From what I understand, the loss of lean mass, and the absence of gravity, is one of the challenges for this space trip; and all this begins with the feeding of astronauts. Because part of the appetite, and the perceived taste itself, comes from the sense of smell. That is, in space they feel less hungry and for the reason that the fullness of food does not go up - as usual, when preparing to the fire or heating in a microwave, this affects the appetite and consequently, is a crucial factor for the biotype we have, as a human being on earth. 

In short, you’re right! nostr:note13804whd87fmd8k0v0xwjr0tvlnfw584wyqkn2vunu33x9s3a3f9s0fdk2u
