NASA to Include Israeli Radiation Suit in Orion Moon Mission
(Calcalist) NASA is set to include a radiation suit manufactured by Israeli company StemRad in its upcoming Orion Exploration-Mission 1, scheduled for June 2020, a blog published by the European Space Agency reported last week. On the crewless mission, two dummies designed to record radiation levels, one donning StemRad's radiation suit, will be used to assess and compare the levels astronauts may be exposed to during a lunar mission. StemRad develops and manufactures wearable anti-radiation equipment for military, scientific and medical applications.
