English	In the near future, as humanity embarks on long-term space missions, we will face the challenge of adapting to zero gravity environments. Unlike Earth's terrestrial evolution over a million years, prolonged exposure to zero gravity makes us float uncontrollably. To address this, I propose the Augmented Limb, a robotic tail inspired by monkeys' anatomical structure for balance. It's a wearable device enhancing control in three-dimensional space, swiftly adapting from a flexible tail to rigid support. This innovation has great potential for improving human adaptation in zero gravity.
Native	在不久的将来，随着人类踏上长期太空任务的征程，我们将不可避免地面临适应零重力环境的挑战。与地球上百万年的进化历程不同，在那里我们的身体适应了陆地条件，而长时间处于零重力环境下会导致我们无法控制地漂浮和旋转。为了解决这个问题，现提出了开发一种名为“增强肢”的额外肢体的构想。这个机械尾巴受到了猴子解决树上摇摆和保持平衡问题的解剖结构启发。增强肢是一种可穿戴设备，旨在为用户提供对自身在三维空间中移动的增强控制能力，与人们熟悉的地球上的二维环境截然不同。它具有迅速适应环境的卓越能力，能够根据需要从柔软的尾巴结构平稳转变为坚固支撑结构。我相信，这一创新性解决方案具有极大的潜力，可以改善人类在零重力环境中的适应能力和表现。
