We all know the pictures of the astronauts on the ISS floating around. We also suspect that a lack of gravity is bad for the body as the muscles go weak and such.

Why don’t spaceships just rotate to cause the effect of artificial gravity through centrifugal forces?

    actually i have been, and i have attributed it to the device not providing consistent centrifugal forces. instead, gravity interferes and makes it inconsistent. which would not happen on a spaceship.
