30 POINTS AND 5 STAR AND THANKS AND BRAINLEST ASAP Passage: from “Life Without Gravity” by Robert Zimmerman
Worse, weightlessness can sometimes be downright unpleasant. Your body gets upset and confused. Your face puffs up, your nose gets stuffy, your back hurts, your stomach gets upset, and you throw up. If astronauts are able to survive a one-year journey to Mars—the shortest possible trip to the Red Planet—they will have to learn how to deal with this weird environment.
