Do Our Bodies Feel at Home in Space?

What really happens to the human body when we leave Earth’s atmosphere? From the way our blood carries oxygen to how our brains adapt in microgravity, space pushes human physiology to its limits. We speak to Professor Damian Bailey, an expert in extreme physiology, about what science tells us so far and what it might mean for the future of space travel.
