>>16885966>CAN HUMANS SURVIVE SPACE RADIATION?Approximate distance from the Earth in kilometers (km), the radiation levels in millisieverts (mSv) per day and per year for various locations, taking into account the radiation level for astronauts, showing the daily level first followed by the annual level in parentheses and accounting for the additional radiation exposure on the Moon and Mars:
>MORE THAN THIS RADIATION KILLS THE GOYInternational Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recommendation: 1 mSv/day (20 mSv/year)
>RADIATION INCREASES WITH ALTITUDE Earth's surface: 0.00047 mSv/day (0.17 mSv/year), 0 km
International Space Station (ISS): 0.0027 mSv/day (1 mSv/year), 400 km
Low Earth Orbit (LEO): 0.027 mSv/day (10 mSv/year), 160-2000 km
Inner belt (low edge): 0.0027 mSv/day (1 mSv/year), 1000-13000 km
Inner belt (high edge): 0.027 mSv/day (10 mSv/year), 1000-13000 km
Slot region: 0.00027 mSv/day (0.1 mSv/year), 13000-20000 km
Outer belt (low edge): 0.027 mSv/day (10 mSv/year), 20000-40000 km
Outer belt (high edge): 0.27 mSv/day (100 mSv/year), 20000-40000 km
>50X MORE RADIATION THAN SAFE LIMIT AT THE MOON Moon Surface: 3 mSv/day (1095 mSv/year), 384,400 km
Mars Surface: 2 mSv/day (730 mSv/year), 225-400 million km
