NIH-funded researchers created human phantoms used to test a wearable vest that serves as a personal radiation shielding garment to protect astronauts during deep space missions. The phantoms enable important research that is essential for safe and sustainable human deep space exploration. Read the full paper ➡️ bit.ly/4xGC5Jq

Star trails from the ISS! Lots of cool physics to see in these. Stars moving as thin lines in the direction of our orbital path but forming arcs to the left of our velocity vector. Lightning flashes making purple spots into the time history. City lights streak by. A faint red glow is seen as part of our upper atmosphere. Surreal!
