   Astronauts have lost as much as 60% of muscle and bone mass by extended   
   stays in space even with exercise. So what would happen if you just let the   
   body totally adjust to space for several years? No doubt that you could   
   never return to gravity, but so what. Living in spaced for life is not so   
   bad. I just wonder what one would finally look like if allowed to totally   
   adapt naturally to space. There must be some point at which one would   
   stableize to another form. Perhaps like an octopus with no bones at all, it   
   would allow for brain growth again.
