Concerns Spark Over Williams’ Health
Recent images of Williams showing a gaunt appearance and weight loss alarmed the public, with some speculating starvation. However, Williams clarified her weight hasn’t changed, attributing her appearance to “fluid shifts” caused by microgravity. NASA also reassured the public, emphasizing routine health checks and sufficient supplies onboard.
Staying Fit in Space
Williams follows a rigorous, earth-like workout routine to maintain muscle and bone health, with NASA scheduling astronauts for 2.5 hours of daily exercise. “I’ve noticed changes—bigger thighs and a stronger build,” Williams shared, dispelling rumors about her health.
Though their journey is far from what they expected, these seasoned astronauts are proving their resilience and dedication to advancing human space exploration.
