Title: Unconsidered risk of Manned Space Flight

Something I didn't think about when I was reading all that science fiction and dreaming as a kid: you could lose your finger and toenails through delamination!

Wow! At first I was confused since I didn't think they used much wood construction up ther! And would (no pun intended) think they would have developed a nail pouch with magnets, anyway. Frankly I was just hoping they didn't have the same problem I do when using nails; sometimes half of them have the head on the wrong end!!! And  can't always use them on the other side of what I'm building because it is so small...

Oh well, it's good to see this problem has been 'elevated'! And look at the good side: we don't have to worry about meeting aliens with claws! clap.gif

I think that it kind of makes sense when they've talked about losing bone mass; especially when they don't exercise!
