Original Note:
Post misinterprets inertia, confusing velocity with acceleration. A pilot feels force due to acceleration, not velocity. ISS only experiences inertia when firing its engines for orbit corrections, as that’s when an external force acts on it. Also.. don’t promote the BBC thx https://www.britannica.com/science/inertia
