- belter 2y agoYes but this is about the press conference of today. 8 months in space has serious health implications. These two astronauts will take a dose of radiation that will essentially finish their career as astronauts. NASA attitude so far, playing it cool and keep talking like this is just the longest thruster test program in history is incomprehensible.
