After spending 18 days on the International Space Station i.e. ISS, Indian Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla left for Earth on July 14 at 3 pm. He will land on Earth on 15 July. However, the question arises that after spending so many days in space, Shubhanshu Shukla can fall prey to which disease? Now what are the dangers for them in the Earth’s atmosphere?
How dangerous is the space travel for health?
Space travel is an extraordinary experience for the human body, but it also poses a risk of many physical and mental problems. According to European Space Agency (ESA) flight surgeon Dr. Brigit Goddard, astronauts may have many problems due to micrograti. These include fluid shifts, reduction in bone density, muscles loss and space motion sickness. Shubhanshu Shukla may also face these dangers.
Space Motion Sickness
According to Dr. Goddard, Shubhanshu Shukla experienced space motion sickness in the first days in space, including problems such as heaviness and dizziness. This condition is caused by microgravity, where the balance and direction of the body is affected. At the same time, astronauts may have such problems even after returning to Earth. Usually these problems are cured in a few days, but in some cases this condition may remain for a long time.
According to NASA’s recent research, about 70 % astronauts have to face this condition. However, Shubhanshu is a fighter pilot. In such a situation, his experience has been helpful in dealing with this condition. Despite this, after coming to Earth, he will be monitored in a seven -day rehabilitation program.
Bone and muscles loss
Space in space has a poor effect on bones and muscles. Shubhanshu during his mission performed an experiment called ‘Myogenesis’, in which the process of weakening of the muscles was done in microgravity. Bone density in space may decrease at the rate of 1-2% per month. There is a risk of problems like osteoporosis.
Radiation danger
There is also a risk of radiation in space. Shubhanshu made experiments during his mission to deal with the risk of radiation, which are important for the long future missions. According to Dr. Elizabeth Johns, working at Houston, NASA Johnson Space Center in Texas, cosmic raj and solar radiation in space may increase the risk of DNA loss and cancer. Shubhanshu and his partner Estrainots checked radiation using ‘Red Nano Dosterimeter’, which will provide better security to astronauts in future.
Mental Health and Tension
Mental health is also affected by staying in space for a long time. Shubhanshu made several experiments during his mission, in which the blood flow of the brain and the speed of the eye was studied. These research will help in understanding mental health and neurological effects.
