dependence of risk on dose-rates in space related to the biology of DNA repair, cell regulation and tissue responses; predicting solar particle events (SPEs) extrapolation from experimental data to humans and between human populations; individual radiation sensitivity factors (genetic, epigenetic, dietary or "healthy worker" effects)
Robert Zubrin has pointed out that Titan possesses an abundance of all the elements necessary to support life, saying "In certain ways, Titan is the most hospitable extraterrestrial world within our solar system for human colonization." [6] The atmosphere contains plentiful nitrogen and methane. Additionally, strong evidence indicates that ...
The craft is designed to operate in a space radiation environment and in temperatures averaging 94 K (−179.2 °C). [40] Titan's dense atmosphere and low gravity mean that the flight power for a given mass is a factor of about 40 times lower than on Earth. [3]
Ever wonder what outer space smells like? After coming back from a spacewalk and pulling off their helmets, astronauts are hit with the scent of cosmic molecules that hitch a ride on their suits.
The sum of human experience has resulted in the accumulation of 58 solar years in space and a much better understanding of how the human body adapts. In the future, industrialisation of space and exploration of inner and outer planets will require humans to endure longer and longer periods in space.
Human presence in outer space began with the first launches of artificial object in the mid 20th century, and has increased to the point where Earth is orbited by a vast number of artificial objects and the far reaches of the Solar System have been visited and explored by a range of space probes.
Huygens (/ ˈ h ɔɪ ɡ ən z / HOY-gənz) was an atmospheric entry robotic space probe that landed successfully on Saturn's moon Titan in 2005. Built and operated by the European Space Agency (ESA), launched by NASA, it was part of the Cassini–Huygens mission and became the first spacecraft to land on Titan and the farthest landing from Earth a spacecraft has ever made.

Levis says he and the production team were at the Titans' facility filming from 4 p.m. to midnight, trying to perfect the attitude of a not-at-all-joking fragrance commercial. "I take everything I ...
