Pioneering NASA Astronaut Health Tech Thwarts Heart Failure
Prioritizing health is important on Earth, and its even more important in space. Exploring beyond the Earths surface exposes humans to conditions that can impact blood pressure, bone density, immune health, and much more. With this in mind, two NASA inventors joined forces 20 years ago to create a way to someday monitor astronaut heart 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/cente...#nasa #space #news #nasa_humans_in_space #nasa_technology #nasa_spinoffs #nasa_technology_transfer #nasa_general #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_spiral_galaxies #nasa_the_universe #nasa_ames_research_center #nasa_cubesats #nasa_heliophysics #nasa_science_ &_research #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_people_of_johnson #nasa_nasa_headquarters #nasa_artemis_accords #nasa_bill_nelson #nasa_pamela_a ._melroy #nasa_earth #nasa_earth_science #nasa_greenhouse_gases

Program Executive Dr. Yaítza Luna-Cruz
My mom had to leave school after 9th grade to support her family, but she always emphasized the importance of education. And with a lot of sacrifices, got us an encyclopedia in Spanish, Enciclopedia de Las Ciencias. By getting that encyclopedia for us, without knowing it, my mom was my first mentor because she introduced 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/image...#nasa #space #news #nasa_humans_in_space #nasa_technology #nasa_spinoffs #nasa_technology_transfer #nasa_general #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_spiral_galaxies #nasa_the_universe #nasa_ames_research_center #nasa_cubesats #nasa_heliophysics #nasa_science_ &_research #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_people_of_johnson #nasa_nasa_headquarters #nasa_artemis_accords #nasa_bill_nelson #nasa_pamela_a ._melroy #nasa_earth #nasa_earth_science #nasa_greenhouse_gases
