The first three days are fairly uncomfortable with the vertigo but | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
once that disappears, it is really a case of the body | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
That's what takes the longest because your body has shut down your | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
vestibular system for the six months in space and that actually | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
take a long time to learn the finesse of balance. | :02:45. | :02:53. | |
