Living in Space

Listen to the following link:

living in space

How would you feel about going to space knowing you would be putting your body at risk to these numerous factors?  Would these factors hinder you from going to space?  Would you be concerned about losing bone density or having your fingernails removed?

No fingernails? That's a little extreme. Even so, I'd still go into space. Though the loss of bone density is a little discouraging.

Savard, Samantha said...

I would not like going into space because i tend to get very car sick and i think going into space is way to much. Also the loss of bone density is a little scary for me and i would not enjoy having no fingernails.

Luke said...

@ stitch.11,
I wouldnt let a little car sickness get in the way of orbitting the Earth. After all, youronly really flying for 3 minutes, then your wieghtless. Just pack a few doggy bags.

Peters,Jennifer said...

I would not go to space in fear that I would loose bone density and my fingernails. All those things would persuade me not to go!

Peters,Jennifer said...

@LUke
How fast do you go when your going to space?

Peters,Jennifer said...

@LUke
How fast do you go when your going to space?

Luke said...

@ Jenn,
Faster than a bullet. However fast that is. maybe over 400 mph

The only reason I wouldn't want to go to space is because I'm putting my body at risk! I think my health is more important than seeing the earth from space! I wouldn't be to concerned about losing bone density, because I can just regain it with excirse, but losing my fingernails... it would stink, but they grow back.

Peters,Jennifer said...

@Luke
Cool, I didn't know a bullet could go that fast!

Anonymous said...

@ Luke
You must really wanna go to space if you wanna go and lose bone density and your fingernails!

Peters,Jennifer said...

@stitch.11
Okay sice I know now that you travel that fast I wouldn't go because I would get sick going that fast.

Luke said...

@ Jenn,
Yep. You think thats fast, the Earth hurtles throu space at like, 30,000 mph, makin it really hard to get a shuttle back in the atmosphere at the right placqs.

Peters,Jennifer said...

@Mackenzie
Yea I know what you mean I wouldn't want to lose my bone density or fingernails so I'm with you Earth all the way!

Peters,Jennifer said...

@Luke
Another reason I don't want to go what happens if you didn't go through the right place?

Luke said...

JENNIFERY!!
I already saids, leaving the atmosphere only takes 3 minutes! Youre picked from 11,000 people to go into space! Would you turn that down b/c you didnt pack a barf bag??????????????????

Luke said...

@ Jenn, youre trained to land in the wright spot! Its easy as landing anm airplane!

:0

Peters,Jennifer said...

@Luje
O well out of 11,ooo people or not I would turn in down and I wouldn't pack a barf bag because I wouldn't be going. How long to you train to hit the right spot?

Luke said...

I dont care if I lose 50% of my bone density! I would pack my bags the SECOND the Nasa acadamy admits me. Its a once in a lifetime chance! Would you pass that up.

Moehring,DeeAnna said...

i would NOT like to lose my fin gernails or 1/10 percent of my bone mass!

Lamping Ally said...

EWWWWW gross I would NEVER EVER want to go to space if i had to loose my fingernails! Thats something i can not sacrifice

Peters,Jennifer said...

@Luke you don't care if you lose half your bone desity??????? I surely do!

Luke said...

@ Jenn. IT TAKES YEARS TO TRAIN. I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU WOULDNT GO!!!!!!!!.
:(

Moehring,DeeAnna said...

@ stitch 11 i would also be afraid of the travel to space because of getting sick!!!

Mauricio,Courtney said...

HAVE MY FINGERNAILS RIPPED OFF!!!!! NO WAY, THATS SOO INTERESTING!!! EWWWW!! I have had my toenail fall off and it hurts way too much! The astronout must have courage to be able to know this and more about risks would surly discouage me!!

Greve, Julia said...

once there was an astronaught in orbit for i don't know how long, but it must have been months, because when we was welcomed back to earth while waving to a crowd, he broke his hand because now his bones lost their density.

bekah said...

i would hate to go into space because to lose bones would be kinda freaky

Smith,Courtney said...

i wouldn't go into space if i was going to lose some bone density and my finger nails that just sounds like it would hurt.

Smith,Courtney said...

@ jennifer,


i agree with you

Greve, Julia said...

@ peters, jennifer
how could you not want to travel space? fingernails grow back. you only lose a lot of bone density if you stay up there more than a few months. it would be amazing to travel up there collecting scientific research and seeing sites not many humans have ever seen!

Anonymous said...

i would not go in to space first of all because i wouldnt want to take the chances ofr loseingn my finger nails! One more reason is that i hate heights and being that heigt might make me puck that could be a saftey vialation as well ! so i wouldnt want to go into space!for sure yes it would be interesting to see the earth for space but i wouldnt like to take the chances ,thank you lyndz roberto

Greve, Julia said...

@ courtney

but wouldnt it be amazing to travel space? its just fingernails.

stalbaum,lauren said...

um, no finger nails... i would sell all my polish and make a fortune :) but really it is freaky but here is a link all about space and tthere are some game to :) ...

Anonymous said...

Having to lose your bone dencity sounds scary. If your up in space for like a year and you loss bone dencit. will you be able to walk or anything that just is weird.

Henry Minning said...

Wow, that must be really hard to tain for that. I wonder what that would be like to lose bone density. You would have to be in really good shape to go up into space. And what about the fingernails? I wonder what that would be like and I wonder how that happens?

Smith,Courtney said...

@ julia

im just saying that now but if i got asked to i probaly would.

Anonymous said...

@Luke
Ya no fingernails? I would never remove my nails.

Sydney,Vest said...

Fingernails??? what?? thats so weird!!! I cant believe your fingernails could fall off, also there suits are that tight!!! I feel bad for them. I would go into space scared of bone loss. i agree with Jennifer Peters

Garvey, Emily said...

I would not go to space in fear that I would loose bone density and my fingernails. Ewww, I would not like it. But it would be kinda cool.

Gerdes,Austin said...

well the fingernail thing is allitle bit far fettched but the rest is reasonable to an extent

Tchase said...

Ive always been extremly interested in space.But the bone density and fingernails thing is really scary to think about..I cant even think about having no fingernails..Wouldnt that hurt really bad..? Eww..

Alec said...

Getting your fingernails cut off? Thats really odd. I would not like to lose any part of my bones! I agree with syd the science kid

Enderle, Tyler said...

I want to lern more obut space

MooreKassidy said...

i more then likely wouldnt go to space knowing that im putting my body at risk.
i would for sure not go if i was going to lose my finger nails.

Dupont, Noah said...

I would never want to go into space. That is for a few reason. For one those losses right there. No fingernails sounds uncomfortable and just weird. Though they do grow back. Then the bone density is a big no. Also my reasons that I knew before this is one, I HATE heights-though I do love roller coasters-. Then I have a fear of drifting off in space. Then there is the fact that you have to land in water when coming back into the atmosphere and all that. Its just scary for me.

MooreKassidy said...

@ anna.
I agree with you. losing my fingernails would probably be like the worst thing ever.

Hannah Graff! said...

I Always Thought Going To Space Would Be Safe... I Never Would Have Guessed Going To Space Would Put Me In Danger. Wouldnt It Hurt For Your Finger Nails To Come Off!

@McKenzie Young
I Agree With You My Finger Nails Would Grow Back, But What Would It Be Like With Out Them For That Time?
Ya If You Exercise And Drink Lots Of Milk ( Which I Hate ) You Might Get A Little Better, But It Is Severe Maybe Not Enough To Function...

cirkovic, daniel said...

No finger nails? Thats where I draw the line. NO going into space for me. I think your health is more important than looking at earth!

Thorp,Jayden said...

i would be total scared because when i was little i whould here that word and i would flip bust out crying so i would be total terrifed.

Calderon, Heidi said...

@peters,jennifer
I think that it is a very weird thing to loose your finger nails and bone density..... it would persuade me not to go either (: i would never ever in my life go out into space it is just something that i would never do in my life (:

baxter bryan said...

@ luke ya i think it is alittle extrem to i would go to space with u

cirkovic, daniel said...

@Andrew Ehrman

I know i mean losing your nails? Thats crazy. I dont think its worth going into space for that.

wessels,kelsey said...

i nevere knew it be so dangerous to live in space and not to have fingernails is a little odd.

Calderon, Heidi said...

@thorp,jayden

Same here jayden i would be totally flipped out it just sounds like a freaky thing... and i bet if i heard that when i was little that i would start just flat out crying in a minute..(::
NO GOING IINTO SPACE FOR ME ITS A CREAPY THING TO DO!!(:

MooreKassidy said...

@ Luke.
How could you want to go to space and lose your fingernails?!I could Never In My Life do that! I would be so scared.

Guthier Nick said...

I would like to go to space because i would like to see what I would look like without fingernails that sounds nastey and painful at the same time but it would be cool and weird to see. I think it would be cool to see the earth on the moons prospective. I never knew it would be so dangerous to go into space!!

@Luke
I know it would be so weird to have no fingernails and yeah it would be cool to go into space anyway I mean even though your fingernails come off they will grow back so it wouldn't hold me back from going into space.

Hannah Graff! said...

@Kassidy
Yaa, But Its Not For Sure That Its Going To Happen. I Bet Its Rare...

Dupont, Noah said...

@Thorp, Jayden
I completely forgot about Planet X I remember hearing about it a while back! Think that the name is a bit wierd? It sounds like something from a cartoon, that or a cheesy story. Also I still say Pluto is a planet, though they say it isn't.

MooreKassidy said...

Yeah i would go space but i would fear for my life.(:

Jenkins,Tom said...

me cant open link! T-T o nos!

Reis, Elizabeth said...

I think that it would be really cool to go into space but overall I would not want to. Space is so different from earth that I would be too scared especially with the fact that I could lose my finger nails and bone density. Going into space is a lot tougher than it seems. But it would be so fun to be in weightlessness!

Reis, Elizabeth said...

@Tom that happened to me at first too. Just try again until it works!

Hannah Graff! said...

@Kassidy
Ya Thats Understandable :)

kallmeyer, bridget said...

I would not want to go into space because it would be putting my body at risk. I do not want to lose bone density or have my finger nails removed.

kallmeyer, bridget said...

@Mackenzie
I agree. I think that my health is more important than seeing the world from another point of view.

LaGrangeBonnie said...

@Luke I would go too! I mean really space is so mysterious and seriously what would keep some people is loss of fingernails. I mean seriously they are going to grow back. Wow I just said seriously twice!haha.

ReddingtonDavid said...

that is crazy losing your fingernails and bone density but going up in space is a once in a lifetime oppurtunity so i would do it

LaGrangeBonnie said...

I would definitely go! Space is a once in a lifetime chance and I want to live my life to the fullest and if I lose fingernails and bone density on the way well then whatever.

Haha! Your right. I would put my health first instead of going into space. I would think I would be ok to lose my fingernails, but losing bone density is where I would draw the line. It seems like that would effect you a lot later in your life.

Andrew Ehrman said...

@ Daniel cirkovic
now that I think about it it would problably be worth it to lose your finger nails to go into outer space I mean you could float around imagine how fun that would be to play with water in outer space.

Andrew Ehrman said...

@Luke
also when your coming back down through the earth's atmosphere that much heat right under you would be a little scary.

That would be scary to float off in space.
