Summary from elsewhere
The International Space Station (|SS) has low microbial diversity, which could lead to astronaut health issues, according to a study published in Cell.
Researchers found that the microbial communities resemble those found in sanitized environments like hospitals rather than natural settings.
Co-senior study author Pieter Dorrestein explains that increasing microbial exposure could improve astronaut health during long-term space travel.
The study suggests incorporating natural elements, like soil, into the ISS to enhance microbial diversity and astronaut well-being.
The study in question:
Or we could just like shield radiation, and provide oxygen/gravity.
Relying on evolution for this sounds like it’d take a couple millennium longer than just like a spinning slab of concrete with a rebreather inside.
