Would there be any adverse effects on the tissues of living organisms in a
manned space station that was spun to produce centrifugal force
for artificial gravity? Could the tissues or cell structure of a animal
become distorted over long periods of time spent under these conditions?
Would such effects be subtle in nature or large enough to lead to disorder
and disease?
