Deep space missions and the issue of overcoming the problem of space radiation
As a member of the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS), Iran has a long-term space exploration program. Space radiation is one of the challenges facing humans when they go outside Earth's protective atmosphere and magnetic field. Space is an environment that the cardinal principles of radiation protection i.e. time, distance and shielding cannot be effectively ...
متن کاملFuture role of vitamin C in radiation mitigation and its possible applications in manned deep space missions: survival study and the measurement of cell viability
Background: Astronauts will be exposed to both chronic space radiation and acute high doses of energetic radiation of solar particle events in long-term deep space missions. The application of radioprotectors in space missions has basic limitations such as their very short time window as well as their acute toxicity and considerable side effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate ...
متن کاملRisk from relativistic heavy ions on manned space missions.
The risk from exposure to radiation posed to space travelers outside the magnetic shielding provided by the geomagnetosphere will come from two sources: the slowly varying but low intensity high-energy galactic cosmic rays and the more intense predominantly low-energy protons from large solar particle events associated with magnetic disturbances originating sporadically on or within the solar s...
متن کاملRadiation Hazards and Manned Space Flight.
T HE POTENTIAL medical hazards of man's venture into space will span a number of disciplines in regard to the pathology and deranged physiology to which the human body may be subject in travel beyond the earth's atmosphere. Not the least hazard is that having to do with the effects of radiation to be encountered in free space. This problem is one which is receiving considerable attention from a...
