In article ,
says... a study just complete prove long term stays in orbit cause dna changes No cite? Of course not. http://www.redorbit.com/news/space/1...s-study-space- travel-changes-your-dna/ From above: Telomeres on the ends of chromosomes in Kelly's white blood cells became longer during his time in space, it was found. Reduced exercise and a lower calorie count while in space could explain this, according to researchers. His telomeres, which are known to decrease in length with age, shortened again once Kelly returned to Earth. Kelly was found to be two inches taller when he came back to Earth in March 2016, but just as his height returned to normal once he came back, so did his DNA. Similarly, the astronaut's level of chemical DNA modification slowed while in space before returning to normal after he came back to Earth. So, the changes were temporary and could be due to diet and (lack of) exercise, not "long term stays in orbit". Jeff -- All opinions posted by me on Usenet News are mine, and mine alone.
