🪨Bones are dynamic organs that constantly break down, regenerate, and repair themselves.
💪Microgravity in space causes astronauts to lose bone mass at a rate of 1-2% per month.
📈Bone remodeling, carried out by osteocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts, is the process by which bones are repaired and strengthened.
🚀Maintaining bone health during long-duration space travel is crucial to ensure the astronauts' ability to walk upon returning to Earth.
🩹Reversing bone loss after space travel requires years of rehabilitation and hard work.
