Pulmonary and systemic immune alterations in rats exposed to airborne lunar dust

Pulmonary and systemic immune alterations in rats exposed to airborne lunar dust

BackgroundDue to cosmic radiation bombardment and over 4 billion meteorite and micrometeoroid impacts on the airless Moon, the lunar surface is covered by a layer of fine, reactive dust. Very little is known regarding the toxicity of lunar dust on human physiology. This study assessed airborne lunar...
