WEIGHTLESSNESSES Meaning and
Definition
-
Weightlessnesses is the plural form of the noun "weightlessness," which refers to the state or condition of having no apparent weight or experiencing a sensation of floating due to the absence of gravity or the successful cancellation of gravitational forces. It is often used to describe the state that astronauts experience when they are in space or aboard a spacecraft in orbit around a celestial body such as the Earth or the moon.
In the absence of gravity, objects or individuals in weightlessness appear to be completely or significantly unburdened by the force of gravity, giving them the sensation of levitating or floating. This occurs because gravity no longer applies a downward force on the body, causing a release from the usual sensation of weight and allowing objects to become more buoyant. It is this lack of apparent weight that gives rise to the term "weightlessness."
Weightlessnesses can have various effects on the human body, such as changes in fluid distribution, muscle atrophy, and a shift in bodily functions. Scientists and engineers studying weightlessnesses have also made significant advancements in designing and developing technologies and systems for space travel, as handling and compensating for the absence of gravity is crucial for the success and safety of astronauts and space missions.

Etymology of WEIGHTLESSNESSES
The word "weightlessnesses" is a noun derived from the root word "weightless". The etymology of "weightless" can be traced back to the combination of "weight" and the suffix "-less".
"Weight" comes from the Old English word "wiht", meaning a person or thing with a particular value. Over time, "wiht" evolved into "weight" specifically referring to the heaviness of an object due to the force of gravity.
The suffix "-less" is added to nouns to form adjectives or nouns that indicate the absence or lack of something. In the case of "weightless", it denotes the absence of weight or the lack of gravitational force acting on an object.
The plural noun "weightlessnesses" results from adding the plural suffix "-es" to "weightlessness".
