Outer space has almost no matter and extremely low pressure. Without a space suit, a human would lose consciousness within 90 seconds and die due to the lack of oxygen and pressure. Space suits have systems to provide respiration, circulation, and protect against muscular and skeletal issues caused by weightlessness.

he Mars 2020 Perseverance mission is NASA’s next mission to Mars as well as
being the most complex and scientifically advanced robotic mission sent to
the Red Planet.
The $2.4 Billion Mars Perseverance rover is a flagship mission dedicated to the
search for signs of life beyond Earth, as part of NASA’s Mars Exploration Program,
a long-term effort of robotic exploration of the Red Planet.
The Perseverance Mars 2020 mission will search for signs of ancient microbial life,
characterize Mars’ climate and geology, collect carefully selected samples for
future return to Earth, and pave the way for human exploration of the Red Planet
as soon as the 2030s.
Perseverance will also ferry a separate technology experiment to the surface of
Mars — a helicopter named Ingenuity, the first aircraft to fly in a controlled way
on another planet.
Launch is now targeted for a launch opportunity in the July/August timeframe
when Earth and Mars are aligned in good positions relative to each other for
landing on Mars.
The car-sized Perseverance Mars 2020 rover is targeted for liftoff on NET 30 July
2020 aboard a United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 541 rocket from Space
Launch Complex 41 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida.
The approximately month-long launch window for the Mars 2020 Perseverance
rover mission currently extends until August 15.
Is there life life on mars? For many people it is the big question and maybe we aren´t to far to find the answer...

The human body is uniquely designed to live in Earth’s gravity. In space, the body begins to adapt to the microgravity environment.
When an astronaut goes into space, his or her body will immediately begin to experience a multitude of changes that cause the astronaut to feel different and even look slightly different!
Much more research needs to be done to develop countermeasures to the body’s changes in microgravity.
Space Medicine establishes the countermeasures to overcome the physiological effects of space.
The results will help to improve the health of astronauts and pave the way for long-term space exploration, such as a trip to Mars. Space medicine and space physiology are often viewed as two aspects of space life sciences, with the former being more operational, and the latter being more investigational. Space medicine tries to solve medical problems encountered during space missions. These problems include some adaptive changes to the space environment, including weightlessness, radiation, the absence of the 24-hour day/night cycle; as well as some non-pathologic changes that become maladaptive on return to Earth, such as muscle atrophy and bone demineralization. Space physiology tries to characterize body responses to space, especially weightlessness, reduced activity, and stress. It provides the necessary knowledge required for an efficient space medicine.
THE HUMAN CHALLENGES OF CONQUERING SPACE AND COLONIZING OTHER WORLDS.pdfFaga1939
This article aims to present the human challenges of the conquest of space and the human colonization of other worlds. These challenges are described below:
1- Production of rockets that reach speeds close to that of light to travel to the limits of the Universe
2- Production of technologies capable of protecting human beings in space travel
3- Identification of other Earth-like worlds capable of being habitable by humans
4- Enabling human beings to survive in space and in habitable places outside Earth
Warp Drive: Frequency Modulation (FM) of Electromagnetic LightNorman Imperial
Frequency Modulation (FM) of electromagnetic light is the first step towards manipulated light (warp drive).
The extraterrestrials are able to rapidly traverse the spans of space that exist between the stars. The spacecraft they employ to accomplish their interstellar flights can carry a number of the smaller interplanetary craft described in the previous section. The interstellar vehicles can accurately be called "motherships". These cigar shaped craft, ranging from 1/4 to 1&1/2 miles in length utilize a totally different type of propulsion system, called the "eggbeater drive" because of the shape of the wake of energy emitted from its propulsion system. The basis of this new type of propulsion is called manipulated light.
This review introduces microgravity environment the escape velocity which is independent of the mass of the object escaping and the effects of microgravity on bones, muscles, blood flow, proprioceptive system and re distribution of fluid in relation to the impact of the affected parts to the reproductive organs. Since the human reproductive organs components include bones, muscles, blood and fluids tissues. From previous work, it was discovered that penis, virginal, and uterus activities are negatively affected. Jaiyeola O. Paul | Oluwafemi A. Funmilola | Abdullahi S.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
