Artemis II Astronauts Study Radiation’s Effects on Human Body
NASA's Artemis II mission is not only sending astronauts on a lunar flyby but also conducting vital research into the effects of deep space radiation on the human body. Using biological "avatars" derived from astronaut stem cells, scientists aim to gather crucial data for long-duration missions, like those planned for Mars. Stunning images from the mission also offer a new perspective on Earth and inspire future generations in STEM.
