Artemis II mission highlights deep space effects

Artemis II highlighted that even a short 10-day deep-space mission exposes crews to elevated radiation and other physiological effects that scientists are still studying. These findings emphasize persistent health risks for human deep-space exploration and will affect mission planning, crew protection measures, and biomedical research priorities.
