Designing things for humans is complicated, and it is even more so when taking into account some of the quirky things about living and working in space. This will be a low-key presentation on a high altitude subject - part habitat design, part life sciences, and maybe even some radiation protection!!
Daniel Case is a Ph.D. candidate in Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the University of Colorado - Boulder. At CU, he researches ways to keep astronauts healthy and safe in the space radiation environment, in an effort to help enable long-term human spaceflight beyond low Earth orbit. His focus is on integrating passive shielding into space habitat design, ideally providing as much radiation protection using as little mass as possible.
So, come get your nerd on!!! Grab a tasty beer at the bar and join us in the back room for some Space Science!!! And as always - Tell your family and friends!! Hope to see you there!!
