Mission to Mars

Mission to Mars soon to be a reality with help of a space shield.
Scientists are currently working on a new high-tech material that can shield astronauts from deadly deep-space radiation that they would face during a manned mission to Mars. The material, known as graohite nanofiber, is much lighter than the dense materials used on Earth as radiation shielding in nuclear power plants.
