Recently, there was a news article on NPR regarding astronauts and rashes. Specifically, the article asked why some people get rashes in space? Apparently, there’s a clue in astronaut blood. As I read the headline, I wondered why we need to know about some astronaut rashes?

I know, I myself suffer from a ton of rashes. I get constant flashes. As a result, I could maybe benefit from this research consideration if a rash mitigation device were to be created. I can surely cope. My rashes are not horrible to address. Just annoying. But perhaps some astronauts can bring relief.
