Is it easier to catch a cold in space? 🤧 #shorts
Stress is a common response when the body finds itself in unfamiliar environments, such as space. Prolonged exposure to stress can weaken the body’s defensive mechanisms, making it more susceptible to illness.
Our astronaut Andreas Mogensen was in space, was part of a study to explore how space travel affects the human immune system.
Before, during and after his Huginn mission, Andreas collected both blood and saliva samples to reveal how the body’s defences adjust to space.
This research is crucial for developing strategies to manage the health challenges faced by astronauts on long missions.

As a sapiophile I get attracted to intelligent women like Juliet instantly. My biggest crushes are Peggy whitson, Rosemary Coogan & Christina koch. Once I become an accomplished Phd holder I wish I could atleast get an autograph from them especially Mrs. Whitson. ESA should do an interview of Mrs Whitson along with Juliet (it would be a dream come true).
