The hazards of travelling to the Moon
Future explorers to the Moon will be exposed to 200 to 1,000 times more radiation than levels experienced on Earth. The radiation data were collected by China’s Chang’e 4 probe, which landed on the far side of the Moon in 2019. Researchers who reported the results say travellers who stay on the lunar surface for more than a few days should build shelters of Moon dirt, made of 80-centimeter-thick walls, to protect themselves from the radiation.
