Gravitational Refugee (noun)

[Definition]:

A person who must leave their current gravitational [environment]—whether seeking lower gravity (such as the Moon’s 0.16g or Mars’s 0.38g) or higher gravity ([hypothetically])—to avoid environmentally induced organ dysfunction, musculoskeletal deconditioning, neuropathy, or cardiovascular insufficiency that would otherwise result in chronic illness or physiological failure.

Context:

Someone born on Mars who comes to visit Earth ([hypothetical] future where humans are on Mars), and they visit Earth but their heart is to weak to handle our gravity, their bones cant stand up as well to support their bodies full weight because now its more than doubled [everything] they’ve ever known except the transit. They would fair far better on Luna than on Earth if for whatever reason Mars was lost to them and they could not return.

Those same conditions we call diseases and chronic illness on Earth, when if they occurred in someone from say, Martian level gravity, no one would fault them or call them faulty, they’d just realize the environment, the earths gravity itself is deadly to some people, except currently all of those who suffer unnecessarily suffer daily and are told they and their bodies are the problem, they are not, this is just literally the wrong gravitational level for their bodies.
