Medical Revolution Needed for Mars Mission

Scientists bring to the spot light, medical attention in Mars. What if an astronaut were to do a mission involving activity on Mars and during the mission he/she becomes ill or breaks a bone, what is the likelihood of the astronaut healing from this wound while in microgravity. As a result of this questioning, NASA has teamed up with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) as a means to discover ways to care for astronauts that will be embarking on this future 4-5 year journey to Mars. Researchers also believe that findings from such investigations will be highly applicable to medicine on earth. A scientist stated: "We're bringing medicine out of the hospital. It's time to think in dramatic ways and imagine our future capabilities... The need here is pretty clear."
