Hi Dee! Another great video. Artificial gravity is not just a thing of Sci-Fi. Gemini 11 created artificial gravity by having Dick Gordon attach a lanyard from the nose of the Gemini to the end of the agena. They unlocked, backed off slowly to get the lanyard straight. Then after firing thrusters they spun the combination to create artificial gravity. I don't remember if they got a G or more. But, they did get some. I believe, when Gemini 8 spun out of control that they created several G's though not intentionally. On Skylab, the crew had a tube that sealed around the Astronauts from the waist down then lowered the pressure. While it did not actually create gravity, they were trying to create to feel of gravity by the near vacuum. There may be more examples, but this is what I could remember this AM. Great video. Keep looking up!
This is awesome 🇺🇸👑💕
