Just use a [[technology:gravity_belt]] to resist the gravity and stay at Low gravity accommodation facilities where the rooms have lowered gravity so one can shower and sleep easy. |

The situation becomes complicated when long term stay is involved, though technically possible to simply use the belts and low gravity facilities for the entirety of the stay, it limits the places one can visit and their options for interaction. As such a program for acclimating the body to higher gravity was developed. | The situation becomes complicated when long term stay is involved, though technically possible to simply use the belts and low gravity facilities for the entirety of the stay, it limits the places one can visit and their options for interaction.
