It is likely that we need more radiation to improve our longevity.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am now almost certain that we need more radiation for better health.
The life expectancy of people going to Mars may be decreased by the higher level of radiation that they receive.
At my age, the radiation will probably do me good.
If we go into space, we need enhancements that handle radiation and osteoporosis... or else we're dead. So what seems like an enhancement in one generation becomes life and death in another generation.
In some cases radiation reduces the incidence of cancer.
To sustain longevity, you have to evolve.
Perhaps nature is our best assurance of immortality.
Science and technology are the keys to both our longevity and our demise. Our entire existence on this planet is a double-edged sword.
There's a rising cancer trend and, as I said, one of the major contributors is the overall ageing of the population - we aren't dying of other things, so we're dying of cancer.
The notion that the levels of radiation would be damaging to human life is preposterous. It's simply not true. It is a political claim more than it is a scientific claim. THAAD has been a thoroughly tested system, and it has been extremely effective.
