Due to the extended exposure of astronauts to microgravity, serious health problems have occurred which inhibit further exploration of space. The most efficient solution to this problem appears to be simulating gravity by radial acceleration. Radial acceleration can be used in the form of centrifugal force by causing a spacecraft to spin around an axis. There are already several different designs for this, and overall, creating artificial gravity seems quite possible.
