Could Humans Live on Mars
In a July 16 dispatch from Cold Springs Harbor, Howard W. Blakeslee notes scientists plan to send fruit flies into the stratosphere with Major Kepner and Captain Stevens. The mission aims to test how cosmic rays in high altitude might drive genetic changes and evolution, potentially affecting life forms on Mars if present. The study stresses how Earth's thicker atmosphere shields organisms from cosmic ray effects, shaping evolutionary outcomes.
