    Clues to How Space Radiation Induces Cognitive Damage

    The documented mechanism for radiation-induced health risks has typically been damage to the DNA contained in the nucleus of cells. But a recent analysis suggests that radiation by certain light ions, which abound in outer space, instead disrupt a separate cellular structure, smaller than the nucleus or a synapse.
