We're using some of these wearable technologies in space so we can understand and mitigate some of the problems in space. The lack of convection also occurs on a nanoscopic scale at the level of Rayshondra, even in a medium-sized fluid like water. There is higher radiation in space, but also when you're in a zero g gravity. And there's no convection around your body to create an oxygen bubble. So if you were exposed to three parts carbon dioxide per 100 million people right now, it could possibly be up to 50 part carbon dioxide per hundred million people by 2050.
