Astronauts' Vision Problems Linked to Prolonged Space Exposure, Posing Risks for Mars Missions
Extended space missions, such as those aboard the International Space Station (ISS), are linked to significant ocular changes in astronauts. These changes, collectively termed spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS), affect around 70 percent of astronauts. A recent study found reductions in ocular rigidity, intraocular pressure, and ocu...

NASA's Ingenuity Helicopter May Become Weather Station for 20 Years on Mars
The Ingenuity Mars Helicopter, designed for five test flights, surpassed expectations with 72 missions before a crash ended its flight capabilities. Despite the damage, its sensors and systems remain functional, allowing it to act as a weather station. Communication with the helicopter relies on the Perseverance rover, which is moving farther away,...
