  • Behavior of mice aboard the International Space Station
    20 female mice were transported to the International Space Station by SpaceX CRS-4 Dragon spacecraft. On NASA’s Rodent Habitat, the mice engaged in a full range of species-typical behaviors. After 7-10 days, younger mice began to exhibit distinctive circling or ‘race-tracking’ behavior that evolved into coordinated group activity. This activity may represent stereotyped motor behavior, rewarding effects of physical exercise, or vestibular sensation produced via self-motion.

      @@stokepusher5481 Well, let's do a rough calculation. They seemed to be doing about one lap per second, and the cage is about 30cm (0.3m) across. Approximating the cage to be round, the circumference would be about 1 metre, so their velocity is 1m/s. Using the formula a=v^2/r, their acceleration would be (1^2)/(0.15), which is 6.7m/s^2.

Their brain is a lot different from ours as they most likely don't understand the concept of freedom, although their does share a characteristic with our own: it produces endorphines when doing physical exercise which induces a sensation of pleasure which can become addictive. Basically, these mice are high on endorphines produced by their own brain, that's it. Besides, mice are used to living in confined spaces as they cannot be reached by predators, they also have all the food and water that they need, which for their simple minds driven by instinct, is more than enogh to feel comfortable.

    • @theuncalledfor
      @theuncalledfor 5 лет назад +8

      No, wrong. They _experience_ centriFUGAL forces, while their legs generate the centriPETAL forces that keep them on a somewhat circular trajectory. Centrifugal force points _outward_ and is a result of inertia trying to keep objects on a straight trajectory, and centripetal force points _inward_ and enforces the curved trajectory.
      When standing on the ground, do you feel the Earth pushing you up, or gravity pulling you down? If you were on a space station with rotational gravity, would you feel the ground pushing you inward, or inertia pulling you outward? When in an accelerating car, do you feel the seat pushing you forward, or inertia pulling you backward (relative to the car)?
      You can force yourself to mentally flip your perspective to "feel" the "real" force rather than the newtonian reaction that is normally perceived, but make no mistake, this is entirely a perspective thing, and the natural perception is one of being pulled in all three cases. Also don't forget that gravitational force is just as much a "pseudoforce" as centrifugal force within the einsteinian model.
