Shouldn't motion sickness only happen when you have a reference frame? i.e., if you're on the space station you shouldn't be able to tell when it's spinning?

- travisjungroth 9y agoA rotating object isn't exactly the same as gravity. There's a rotational effect that exists, so you can tell the difference between being on the ground and in a centrifuge.

- syrrim 9y agoOnly for non-inertial reference frames. If the station were rotating, it would therefore be accelerating, and you would be able to feel it.
