Exploring the Effects of Spaceflight on Human Body
Commercial space missions are expanding, involving non-astronauts in orbit to test the effects of spaceflight on health. The Inspiration4 mission in 2021 collected biomedical samples, revealing findings like shortened telomeres, heightened immune system activity, and microbe exchange among crew members. Despite the stress on the body, most gene activity returned to normal post-mission.
