    Study Notes

    Challenges of Life in Space

    • Life in space is difficult due to the extreme environment, which is characterized by microgravity, radiation, extreme temperatures, and isolation.
    • The lack of gravity affects the human body, causing muscle and bone loss, vision impairment, and cardiovascular problems.
    • Radiation exposure is a significant concern, as it can cause cancer, damage to the central nervous system, and other health issues.
    • Temperature fluctuations in space can be extreme, ranging from -270°C to 127°C, making it difficult to maintain a stable environment.
    • Isolation and confinement can lead to psychological and sociological problems, such as anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders.
    • The absence of atmosphere and magnetosphere in space exposes both humans and electronic equipment to harmful radiation and charged particles.
    • Space travel and living in space also require specialized equipment, infrastructure, and technology, which can be expensive and logistically challenging.
