Artificial Gravity

Posted on 08:26 by hony
When are they going to get started on artificial gravity in space vehicles? The Shuttle is due for retirement in the next year or so, based on the terrible bone loss and anemia problems astronauts face in space, and the time they waste every day having to exercise in ridiculous machines to keep their bone density up, wouldn't it behoove NASA to quit pretending like artificial gravity should be a design standard on the new Earth-to-space launch vehicle?
