@buddhism066: In space, our greatest enemy isn't just the vast distances — it's radiation. There are three main types of radiation: - **Alpha (α)**: These are heavy, charged particles that cannot penetrate the skin but can cause significant damage if inhaled or ingested. - **Beta (β)**: These are fast electrons or positrons with moderate penetration ability; they can be stopped by thin metals such as aluminum. - **Gamma (γ)**: These are high-energy photons that have no mass or charge. Gamma rays can penetrate materials like concrete and steel, leading to deep tissue and DNA damage. To protect astronauts — and eventually civilians — NASA is working on developing radiation shields for space habitats. Proposed solutions include thick walls made of lunar regolith, hydrogen-rich plastics, layers of water, and even magnetic fields to replicate Earth's natural protective shield. #foryoupage #foryou #NASA #SpaceHomes #SpaceRadiation #FutureLife #AstroFacts #AstronomyReels #ScienceReels #SpaceExploration #MarsMission #STEM

btw alpha radiation is not dangerous

Dildo :

The only thing that can stop gamma radiation is me🗿

Jetpacker :

wdm space?

Runaway Alien :

Yall star (the sun) is already going that

Radioact V.F :

U forgotted the neutron radiatoin

particle_metalaccelator67 :

can nasa protect us from meteors perhaps?

sup123489 :

3.6 roetegen of space radiation not great not terrible

Ben :

Where’s single electron radiation

Emilian :

Alpha and Beta cant Touch US so Ther isnt that much of a Problem than you think

Cupcake :

Don’t forget me

wrong bega cant pass our skin
