How does gravity affect aging?

It is a biological process, yes. I'm not well versed with which chemicals do what to cause aging, but rest assured everything in this universe is time-dependent. Imagine the frames of reference (1): Earth and (2): Dr. read more

It is the time that is responsible for your ageing. If you were to stop time, you’d not age. But the catch is, gravity affects time. There is a phenomenon called time dilation. read more

The time-slowing effects of acceleration and gravity have been demonstrated in experiments that compare real clocks on Earth's surface with timepieces in high-flying spacecraft and satellites, such as ones used for global positioning systems. read more

Next, she drew a comparison between the effects of zero-gravity exposure and old age [below]. Gathering the Evidence. Human anatomy evolved in Earth's (1G) gravity so it is understandable that removing this environmental constant is going to invite problems. Gravity is how things know that they are up or down. read more
