The radioactive Van Allen belts posed a serious challenge for space travel. NASA had to figure out a way for astronauts to fly through them without being exposed to deadly doses of radiation. • To learn more about NASA's Van Allen belt calculations, check out these links: • https://spacemath.gsfc.nasa.gov/earth... • https://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/tnD7080R... • Read More: • The 12 Greatest Challenges For Space Exploration • https://www.wired.com/2016/02/space-i... • “It’s a huge, dangerous, maybe impossible project. But that’s never stopped humans from bloody-mindedly trying anyway.” • Studying the Van Allen Belts 60 Years After America’s First Spacecraft • https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/... • “Sixty years ago today, the United States launched its first satellite into space. Dubbed Explorer 1, the spacecraft followed just months after the Soviet Union’s Sputnik 1 and 2 spacecraft commenced the Space Age. Data captured by the Geiger counter aboard Explorer 1 heralded the emergence of space physics and ushered in a new era of technology and communications.” • 6 Surprising Facts About the First Manned Space Mission • https://www.livescience.com/33185-yur... • “Reaching unprecedented speeds for manned travel, the spacecraft broke free of the Earth's gravitational pull and entered orbit around the planet, circling once before re-entering the atmosphere and landing back on Soviet soil.”
