Crystal detectors reveal cosmic radiation doses near the Moon on Artemis I
Crystal-based detectors flown on NASA's uncrewed Artemis I mission have yielded measurements of cosmic radiation doses in the environment near the Moon. The findings offer new data on the radiation exposure astronauts would face on lunar missions, a key safety question for the Artemis programme's planned crewed flights and future deep-space travel.
Why now: New scientific results from the Artemis I mission inform preparations for sending astronauts back to the Moon.
