Mouse liver cells on short-term shuttle flights (STS- 135) have been shown to exhibit changes. By replicating aspects of spaceflight in the laboratory, we can conduct experiments without impacting mission resources. Astronauts are on a high-iron diet during spaceflight. Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) and Solar Particle Events (SPEs) are ionizing radiation sources that can alter physiological functions. Preliminary medication usage data from the International Space Station (ISS) crew shows that the most common reasons for using medications in space are the same for healthy people on earth.
