Trumps EPA wants to relax radiation limits because they found a “scientist” who believes that small doses of radiation is good for you and mainstream scientists are wrong.
CATS is also an acronym for Cheap Access To Space. If you want a sustainable space program, it doesn’t do well to have a launcher that is either disposed of or needs major refurbishment after every launch.
Twenty of the 29 studies directly support the principle that even low-dose exposures cause a significant increase in cancer rates, said Roy Shore, chief of research at the Radiation Effects Research Foundation, a joint project of the United States and Japan. Scientists found most of the other studies were inconclusive and decided one was flawed.
None supported the theory there is some safe threshold for radiation, said Shore, who chaired the review.
Actually, I’ve long wanted to see how cats adapt to free fall. Give them a cage with carpeted sides so they’ve got something to grip, and large enough that they can move around and see how long it takes them to adapt. Of course, feline wastes are going to be a problem, but if they can manage with small rodents, they should be able to manage with cats.

I’d fund Space Cats before I would fund someone’s Space Force.

I’ve always thought that all cats should be launched into space.

Didn’t Fat Freddie of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers also have an idea about space cats?
