Humans manage to live in the Sahara, the Himalayas, tolerate being a hundred pounds overweight fairly well, Alaskans deal with weird day/night cycles, etc. I don't think we're quite as sensitive as you make us out to be.

Also, consider the context within which we are considering such a trip: survival of the species long term. Maybe adjusting to the gravitation and day/night cycle of a new planet is absolutely terrible. Choosing that over extinction is still the easiest choice in the universe.
