What happens to your heart when you travel to Mars? As we gear up for human space exploration to the Moon, Mars, and beyond, a crucial concern emerges. Astronauts living outside Earth's protective atmosphere and geomagnetic field could face #health risks from galactic cosmic rays (GCRs).
John E. Baker, PhD, professor of surgery, biochemistry and pharmacology and toxicology at MCW, partnered with NASA to study how cosmic radiation might affect the heart's health during extended #space travel.
