Radiation protection suit is heading for the Moon

I reported previously (Aug 2015) on the cosmic ray protection suit developed by Israel’s StemRad.  The suit will be tested in 2018 on the next trial flight to the Moon of NASA’s Orion satellite. If successful, the suit will be used on the first manned flight to Mars in 2021.
