Its one of the Big Questions when it comes to considering travel through the enormity of space; how can the human body survive outside the chemical comfort and time constraints of Earth. While a manned trip to Mars might soon become a reality, it would, given current technology, take something like eight months. Given that Mars is a nearby planetary neighbor, thats quite a long time. But what if the astronauts of the future wished, and they surely will, to explore much further into the beyond? Its questions like those which formed the crux of a symposium hosted by the Harvard Medical School Department of Genetics called Genetics, Biomedicine, and the Human Experience in Space. #scififorreal
