The Latest Breaking News from Radiation

A new set of studies offers the most comprehensive look at spaceflight health since NASA’s Twins Study

In 1986, the Voyager 2 spacecraft discovered Uranus has a strangely weak radiation belt. Now, researchers think this could be linked to "traffic jams" caused by the world's warped magnetic field.

New research indicates that nestlings in highly radioactive parts of the CEZ do experience subtle biological differences from those reared in clean areas.

Donna Osborne, who has worked for decades providing transportation for Amish people, said she doesn’t plan to retire

Right now, you are reading these lines on the screen of a mobile phone, tablet, or computer. For decades now, our access to huge amounts of information and instant communication has depended on antennas and transmitters that bathe our surroundings in radiation – specifically, in non-ionising electromagnetic radiation.

A solid defense, or a needless expense for your iPhone?

NASA plans to build a moon-orbiting space station in the future, and just released a comprehensive video of its vision.

Gallium nitride (GaN) used in iPhone 15 chargers can withstand deadly radiations and extremely high temperatures.

S. caninervis, also called steppe screw moss, may eventually be able to grow on Mars — and even help terraform the cold, dry planet.

This little moss withstands deadly blasts of radiation, extreme cold and dehydration — and could probably survive on Mars.

The remarkable aurora in early May this year demonstrated the power that solar storms can emit as radiation, but occasionally the Sun does something far more destructive. Known as “solar particle events”, these blasts of protons directly from the surface of the Sun can shoot out like a searchlight into…
