People can be up to 2 inches while they are in space
Did you know that humans are up to 2 inches tall while they are in space? Probably not. Well, anyway, it is proved that the vertebrae in your back form a giant spring, Pushing down on the spring keeps it coiled tightly and when the force is released, the spring stretches out. In the same way, the spine elongates by up to three percent while humans travel in space. There is less gravity pushing down on the vertebrae, so they can stretch out about up to 3 inches in maximum. But unfortunately, if you come back to earth your height becomes the same as it used to be since the force is not allowing your back to stretch out anymore in the earth.
