[Music] humans age faster in space and this new research may find out why scientists could also find ways to slow down age related health issues all without having to use [Music] astronauts human tissue samples from Oxford space Innovation lab are in Orbit on the International Space Station meanwhile Dr Gard alale is leading a team which observes identical cells on Earth and we be able uh by comparing and analyzing the data coming from these two different uh organ in the International Space Station and also in Earth to be able to study the process of aging and
the impact of the micro gravity and the space in General on the aging process Decades of space travel have revealed how microgravity the sensation of weightlessness affects the human body diminishing bone density and weakening the immune system and als's goal is to discover methods of slowing age related illness whether someone is on Earth or up in space astronauts suffer from muscle atrophy a problem with their joint with their bone and also with the immune system when we noticed this we found that this actually at some point similar to a different age related disease and this
lead us to ask the question if the space might to provide us with um an accelerating aging model and if it is the case that mean we can actually be able to study aging um very faster because this is happened in very short time while Aging in air3 did needed different um uh years plans for Missions to Mars and even Beyond make finding a solution more important
