Article Synopsis
- Planned Moon and Mars missions pose greater health risks for astronauts due to constant exposure to space radiation (SR), unlike low Earth orbit missions.
- Studies on female Wistar rats show that exposure to 10 cGy of SR increases risk-taking behavior and slows reaction times, indicating a decline in cognitive processing.
- The study explores whether the effects observed in female rats also apply to other types of space radiation and to male rats, highlighting the need for further research.
