How do we protect #astronauts on their way to the Moon or Mars? 🚀 One of the biggest unseen threats in space are Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs).

To tackle this challenge, our Space Radiation Physics group at GSI/FAIR has teamed up with the #EuropeanSpaceAgency to build Europe’s first GCR simulator — right here in #Darmstadt. 🌌
