If someone was born and grew up in space,then came to Earth,how would they cope with gravity?

Answer 1

I don't know. I imagine it would be quite a painful, and physically taxing, transition.

God bless!

Answer 2

Certainly, no one can live in space, unless inside a shuttle or what. If a baby is born inside a space shuttle (or something related), there is a little problem for the baby to "cope" with gravity when the baby comes to Earth.

Our genes dictate our abilities that includes our adaptation to gravity. These genes came from our parents (and from grand parents and so on and so forth). This means that the baby already has the innate capability of adjusting to harsh conditions like change in gravity.

Answer 3

I hear that if you carried a baby the full term in space it risks a high chance of deformed limbs, esp the lower limbs.

the body starts reacting (negativly) to 0g immediatly. .developing like that for 9 months would definitly change chemical levels drasticly in your body. These chemicals can react with dna and start to change the dna . its called epigenetics. Many believe that is what causes our genes to react to our enviroment and can change a person/their dna very quickly. Even by the foods we eat. zero G would probably be as effective for "mutations"

Also the baby, if left to grow up in space for about 2-3 years, would never have a chance to build the needed muscles to stand.

All that probably wouldn't make for good earth walking.

Answer 4

not very well, you lose muscle, I believe it was Russia did a test where at the space station they had their guys/girls live up there for a year and everyday they worked out but when they got back to earth they couldn't even walk. Do a search on that I am sure you will find it, I am too lazy to go look, i seen it on a documentary on TV one day.

Answer 5

It would be doubtful that they could survive here for very long due to the atmosphere. Not only the pressure of 14.5 pounds per sq. in on their body, but their muscles would be very week in comparison to our because of the gravity.
It may be possible for them to go into a hyperbaric chamber for a long period of time to slowly get their body and lungs to be able to cope with the extreme pressure here on earth.

Answer 6

Space has no oxygen therefore you cannot be born in space. If you were born in space it would have to be aboard a space station controlled environment with gravity and oxygen. So if they came to earth it would make no difference really.

Answer 7

Bones and muscles required to maneuver on the earth's surface would not have developed in space
The being could not survive for long on it's own.

Answer 8

I can only assume the pressure would damage organs and put give cramps from pressure. They wouldn't live as long as a normal human. Life span would be stunted even if they stayed in space.

Answer 9

I would seriously say drugs.Because they wouldn't have the muscle mass needed to cope with gravity.Probably some circ ulatory issues.And definet problems with the green house effect.

Answer 10

There's some reason to believe that they couldn't deal with it at all. It's likely that their bones and muscles would be too weak.

The muscle issue could be handled with exercise. But the bone problem might be a lot more difficult.

Answer 11

well, more then likely they had a source of gravity where ever they were from. If not, then I suppose it would be pretty cool to be able to actually accomplish a task in 1/1,000,000 of the time!
