It is. They just want donations and increased fundings.
It's all lunacy.

Yes - I don't see any long term base being built on the Moon.

More on radiation.

Google AI:


HZE nuclei (High-atomic number, high-Energy) are heavy, highly charged ions found in galactic cosmic rays, traveling at near-light speeds. Though scarce (1% of cosmic rays), these particles are a primary concern for deep space exploration due to their high linear energy transfer (LET), which penetrates spacecraft and induces severe,, irreversible DNA damage, leading to high cancer risk and potential neurological effects in astronauts.


Key Aspects of HZE Nuclei:

Composition: These are atomic nuclei stripped of electrons, including heavy elements like Carbon, Oxygen, and Iron.


Source: They originate outside the solar system, likely from supernova explosions.


Biological Impact: HZE ions are densely ionizing, leaving tracks through biological tissues that cause clustered, complex DNA damage (double-strand breaks) that is difficult for cells to repair.


Space Radiation Hazard: Because they can penetrate heavy shielding, they represent the most dangerous,, unshielded component of cosmic radiation, necessitating specialized shielding materials like hydrogen-rich plastics rather than heavy metals like aluminum.


Research: Due to their unique,, high-LET,, they are studied using terrestrial accelerators, such as the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory, to model long-term health risks like cancer and degenerative tissue effects.

The astronauts on the ISS get some protection still
from being inside the Earth's magnetic field.

Yes. But when there is a solar flare burst. He copped it in the space station.

Yes. But it's also about warning the astronauts asap to get there within 5 minutes.

We have a long way to go before we can safely travel through even our own backyard. NASA spins it like it will happen tomorrow - more Media lies.
