Space may be worse for humans than thought

The story is based on this report: https://www.theguyfoundation.org/space-health/

> The report’s principal conclusion is that humans venturing into space may face more serious health hazards than previously thought. Conditions such as accelerated ageing, the development of insulin resistance, early diabetes and reproductive issues are likely to get worse the further we travel from Earth. These effects may be difficult or impossible to reverse and, if confirmed by research, will call into question the viability of human exploration in deep space. They appear to be associated with the disruption of cellular bioenergetics, which could also have other perhaps more worrying health consequences.

> Quantum biology studies point to the damaging effects of the space environment on mitochondria and the electron transport chain. Contributing factors include reduced and zero gravity, increased radiation, the lack of a magnetic field and the lack of near infrared radiation.
