'''Space walk''' is a colloquial name used by [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] crewmen to refer to a temporary condition that occurs to [[human]]s that spend too much time in microgravity. It is likely that their legs become unaccustomed to holding their body weight due to muscle mass lost during extended periods of free floating caused by zero gravity. As a result, when they return to an atmosphere with stable gravity, they have a strange lope to their walk for some time.<ref name="tfor">'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 95''</ref> Space walk can also lead to temporary paralysis from the waist down.<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''page 73'' (2011 edition)</ref> | '''Space walk''' is a colloquial name used by [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] crewmen to refer to a temporary condition that occurs to [[human]]s that spend too much time in microgravity.
