Space exploration and economy has entered a new era with private investments reshaping the landscape. One Health approach and health R&D are leading to focus on the role of space science and digital health technologies as a driver both for sustainable space ‘race’ and an enhanced well-being and quality of life on Earth. However, research, development and deployment of digital health technologies in space poses ethical, legal and sustainability challenges that must be addressed to ensure protection of human rights and ethical guidance, also in human-machine relations, personal data processing during space missions.
