NASA lunar radiation vest may reduce solar storm effects
A study has shown that a radiation-shielding vest tested on a manikin during NASA's Artemis I moon mission could significantly reduce exposure to solar storm radiation for future lunar astronauts. The vest, worn by a female dummy, is designed to protect vital organs during high-radiation events and could decrease radiation doses by up to 60%. Researchers believe this technology will enhance safety for long-duration moon bases and Mars missions.
