Hello all,

I was watching discovery channel.
They had something about the new space station
and the impact on astronauts of weightless training
activities to keep their bones srong etc......

I was wondering: Why didn't they include a
spinning part (chamber) in the form of a wheel
to have some gravity in space. I mean, the thing
is already the size of 2 football fields (acc, to discovery)

Greetings,

Berrie
