At 57, she is the oldest woman to fly in space, breaking the record last November when she began her third long-term stay at the International Space Station. After returning home in September, 2017, the NASA astronaut felt matter-of-fact about the age milestone(里程碑).“It wasnt a record I was seeking out,” Whitson said. “I was 42 and 48 for my first two space flights. I feel lucky that I was able to get to do another one in my 50s. I dont think people should let age discourage them, even on those jobs that require some amount of physical fitness. The oldest man is John Glenn (at 77), but weve had male astronauts in their 60s before, so its just a matter of time before women started flying in space at this age.”On Earth, she stays fit by weightlifting, biking, playing basketball and water skiing. She shared what its like to live in micro-gravity: “Its like youre in a swimming pool, but you dont have to worry about breathing. If I push off from one side, Im going to float to the other side. Every direction feels exactly the same, which is really hard for your brain to grasp, but its amazing how fast you adapt.Its a big shock for the body to come back to Earth everything is so heavy. We spend a lot of time getting used being back in gravity again. Back pain was really the most dramatic for me this time. For me, coming home is way harder than going up into space.”1、What does the underlined word probably mean in the passage?Aama
