Artemis II foregrounds human health: immune-system shifts and organ-on-a-chip tests on the crewed lunar flyby

Artemis II's crewed lunar flyby will carry a biomedical suite probing immune-system shifts and organ-on-a-chip responses to deep-space conditions. Those experiments will characterise physiological changes beyond low Earth orbit and validate medical diagnostics and countermeasures required for sustained lunar operations and future Mars missions.
