Astronaut candidates get brain damage from their astronaut training

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart...ars-180982366/

Astronaut candidate Bobby Satcher during a zero-gravity flight on an aircraft in 2004. The microgravity in space affects the human body and even changes the brain
Scientists have long known that traveling to space takes a toll on the body—but they’re still trying to figure out just what that means. But according to a new study, lengthy voyages outside Earth’s gravity can change an astronaut’s brain.

At the center of the brain are four, fluid-filled cavities called ventricles, which help keep the organ cushioned and floating in the liquid that surrounds it. During spaceflight, these ventricles expand by between 11 and 25 percent, as previous studies have shown.
It is the current year.

Wow, who would've thought that free-floating fluids and compounds in the brain can negatively affect normal function. NASA must've thought suffering incredibly high Gs during training would offset the lack of gravity. hurr durr

An astronaut, you racists.

Do you think the Astronaut of colour is aware of the Astronaut meme?

This doesn’t even say it causes brain damage. It just says it causes a ventricle to expand in diameter and that it’s unknown if this causes any negative effects
