New AI tool predicts vision loss risk in astronauts—before launch Since the dawn of human spaceflight, scientists have carefully studied the effects of space and microgravity on astronauts. After decades of observations and examinations, one truth is certain: space is brutal on the human body. Muscles atrophy, bones lose mass, limbs stretch and—more unknown—eyesight can degrade in ways not yet fully understood.

🚀Space takes a toll! Astronauts face muscle loss, bone density changes & mysterious vision shifts. What does long-term space travel *really* do to us? 🤔 #SpaceHealth
