What did NASA cover up? (medical episode cover-up)

[guyfriday]

This idea of mine stems from this report.
NASA astronauts mum on who got sick after 7 months in space

The three NASA astronauts who’d spent seven months living and working on the International Space Station would not disclose which of them spent the night in the hospital once back on U.S. soil during their first press conference since returning to Earth two weeks ago.
All three astronauts — Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt and Jeanette Epps — were rushed to a Florida hospital after splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico on Oct. 25.
But which one of them experienced a medical episode, requiring an overnight stay at the Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola, will remain a mystery — for now.

So, this seems kind of ok given that it might be of a personal health issue, why not say that? I'm suspecting that Epps might have become pregnant while in space or right before she went into space and NASA might have had her terminate the pregnancy while up in space. Pretty big idea, but hear me out;

Pictures of her taken from the time she was in space shows a noticeable difference in the size of her stomach as well as a difference in the roundness of her face. While in space fluid within the body does flow and pool in the body in different areas than they do on Earth, the facts that she seems to have those pooled areas be the exact same as a woman that is pregnant seems odd to say the least. 

NASA refuses to discuss the issue of sex and/or pregnancy in space, and even though it has been hinted at as happening (the sex not the pregnancy) NASA as an organization refuses to discuss it. If Epps went up in space after getting pregnant, then NASA would have a massive failure in its Astronaut Corps if that happened. Yet here we are having this event as a possibility. 

Next, we have the weirdness of Sunita Williams weight loss that should be a massive concern for NASA given that any illness contracted in space might be massively deadly here on Earth, yet the three Astronauts were only isolated overnight. This says something else is going on. Could Williams have taken Ozempic to force a "weight loss issue" to cover for Epps having to self-abort a child in space? 

Now I know this topic will be viewed at with very hate filled eyes by some and might even be called tasteless by others. I will agree, but we shouldn't ignore the odd silence governmental organizations do just because its offensive. If anything, we should double down on pushing for answers when that happens. 

I had to think about where this topic would be best suited and came down to realizing that since this might be something NASA is behind, calling it a Black Project might be very appropriate given how NASA like to hide stuff when they are supposed to be the cutting edge of R&D for public and private ventures. As to the Cover-up, well nothing has been said other than that the astronauts were held for a health issue. Seems cover-upy doesn't it.

For who's attention would this be? Is there an obligation to disclose it to the world?

Super curious though.

I think NASA lets a lot fly by without taking responsibility for the actions that come from it. There was that one Astronaut that traveled across the country to kill her rival is just one example of this behavior that NASA doesn't want to discuss when it happens. I get the desire for the silence, but as a governmental entity they are responsible to the people. When they come out and discuss a health issue with returning Astronauts and then have another one that is being reportedly wasting away in space, doesn't the public deserve answers if a new space related disease was created?

On the other hand, if NASA is using it's position to forcibly hold Astronauts hostage until they fall in line with behavioral action that may/may not be in the persons/public best interest, then they should be held to task for it. In this case we don't know what's going on due to NASAs refusal to answer for what happened.

Too what people? I'm not American, how can they tell you without telling me if they do it publicly.  They probably made all the reports they needed.  There is a space race going on, they want to keep some secrets.

But you do have my support on the cause.  Get us the juicy stuff.

she is pirate now too i wonder why

you think pregnant because word mum in link "nasa-astronauts-mum-on-who-got-sick-after-7-months-in-space"? that is just britishism for keeping your trap shut.

I’m just looking at those three guys, trying to figure out which one of them would be desperate enough, to have sex with her. 

I hear she’s playing the Wicked Witch of the East in Wizard of Oz Part 2.

She’s perfect for the role! No facial prosthetics necessary!

Lol.

Space pregnancy and space abortions?

You'd think they'd at least use protection.

Why of all the possible undisclosed medical reasons are we doing original sin? Two ideas put forth are focusing on the women? Why couldn't one of guys be a retrovirus carrier or something?

Damn astronaut women getting knocked up and taking weightloss drugs in space!

"Space flight is still something we’re continually learning about. Surprises come up, and this was one of those times.

We’re still piecing it all together, and out of respect for privacy, that’s all we’ll be saying for now.”

You can sorta parse a euphemism for pregnancy out of that, but it could be any other medical issue caused during space flight.

Did they send all three (or four) to the hospital just to cover their ass with Jeanette Epps, or did they also contract her morning sickness?

From a health of baby standpoint I can't imagine space food being the best for it. And if she got pregnant while in space they would likely hold her longer than over night, and not immediately send her to rejoin the others in post flight.

They also do experiments to study bacteria and pathogens. It could have been some classified reasearch causing some unforseen exposure. Something they can't say.

Thats Williams, she's the one I believe took Ozempic to cover for the "illness" that Epps got. I find that her wasting away to be very serious, yet NASA doesn't really seem to concerned about exposure given that they didn't want her to come back immediately, and instead just sent Epps back instead. Something isn't right about that.
