    Talking Chances of Cancer

    According to a US research, a man living on Earth (US), has 44% chance of developing cancer in his live, out of which 22% end up very bad.

    So I went further and searched how much astronauts died from cancer.
    Turns out, only 9 from 521 astronauts died from cancer/leukemia/brain tumor.
    The radiation in space is 10x the radiation on Earth.
    But astronauts run 2 km every day, you know that?
    Imagine if we did that here on Earth...
    No wonder humans 200 years ago had a 1% chance of developing cancer, or to simplify, the same chance astronauts have.

    Stand up people. Run. Live longer. There is plenty to see.
