How do space missions impact astronauts’ health? AIIMS, ISRO collaborate to develop training modules

A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to develop training modules for astronauts. This collaboration aims to address the health challenges faced by astronauts during space missions. The modules will focus on understanding and mitigating the physiological and psychological effects of space travel on the human body. Experts from both institutions will work together to create comprehensive training programs that will equip astronauts with the necessary knowledge and skills to maintain their health and well-being in the extreme environment of space. This initiative is expected to enhance the safety and success of future space exploration endeavors.
