minus-squareSHOW_ME_YOUR_ASSHOLE@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up18·16 days agoOnly a little, it is microgravity after all.
minus-squareMisterFrog@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·15 days agoUm acshually gravity in the international space station is not that much lower than on the surface of earth, just that they are weightless in orbit.
