With an increasing number of individuals traveling to space, research studies are revealing various impacts that space travel has on the human body. A recent study has discovered that traveling in a microgravity environment reduces the activity of genes in white blood cells that are necessary for the immune system. The study emphasizes how astronauts have an increased risk of infection during space missions due to the suppression of their immune system. Other effects of space travel on the human body, including bone and muscle loss, vision changes, and cardiovascular issues, have also been researched extensively. As space travel continues to evolve, it is important to continue studying and understanding its effects on the human body.
