Opportunities in space life sciences
There are very positive signs that in the next few decades space travel for scientific understanding, exploration, in-situ resource utlilisation, tourism, and eventual settlement (lunar and Martian habitation) will become reality. Some of the most exciting developments are being led by a resurgence...

There are very positive signs that in the next few decades space travel for scientific understanding, exploration, in-situ resource utlilisation, tourism, and eventual settlement (lunar and Martian habitation) will become reality.

The recently announced United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Artemis lunar exploration program is aiming to return the first female and next male astronaut to the Moon’s south pole by 2024 and follow this with the establishment of sustainable missions by 2028 [1].
