Martian dust could pose health risks to future astronauts
75% Informative
Long-term exposure to Martian dust could create a host of health problems for future astronauts.
The study is the first to take a comprehensive look at the chemical ingredients that make up Martian dust.
The first human explorers on Mars may spend around a year and a half on the surface, increasing their exposure.
Even inhaling a few milligrams of perchlorates in Martian dust could be dangerous for astronauts.
Wang noted that the best time to prepare for the health risks of Martian dust is before humans ever make it to the planet.
Iodine supplements, for example, would boost astronauts' thyroid function.
Filters specifically designed to screen out Martian dust may also help keep the air in living spaces clean.
