Sunglasses that protect against UV light are essential for astronauts and protect against visible light, which can also damage the eye. Astronauts should never look directly at ... -sensitive area in the eye, the retina. In space there is no atmosphere to help protect us from some of the damaging effects of the Sun's energy. When astronauts spacewalk, however, they put on reflective visors to protect the eyes when they are working in direct sunlight. ---- Answer provided by Dr. Jonathan B ...

No, the spacesuit provides all the protection an astronaut needs. It protects from the extreme heat and cold of space and provides protection from the radiation in space. It provides the necessary cooling ...

... less focused it will be by the time it gets to the human. Active radiation protection takes the form of electromagnetic shielding, electrostatic shielding and chemical radioprotection. Electromagnetic shielding and electrostatic shielding use generated energy fields to deflect or reroute the radiation around the protected area or spacecraft. However these fields do not prevent GCR exposure. Chemical radioprotection uses specialized ...

... out of the way. For smaller objects such as micro-meteoroids, we have layers of protection built into the skin of our modules that can stop them from penetrating the module skin. The skin is also equipped with a multi-layer insulation blanket that protects the modules from temperature extremes. Water has been shown to effectively block radiation, so we ...
