the Russian University for The Management of State Systems and Radioelectronics in Russia and NASA Aerospace Materials are working together to develop a new coating that can withstand various types of outer space radiationThe new coating is mainly based on sulphate, and its solar radiation absorption coefficient is very lowThe main task, scientists say, is to ensure that the new coatings are highly resistant to radiation from spaceother coatings of optical solar reflector type can absorb up to 20 percent of the solar energy, while sulphate-type coatings can absorb only 7 to 10 percent of the solar energy,researchers sayThe research team has now begun to study the coating manufacturing process, which will then be tested experimentally on the outer space conditionsimulator, with plans to put the technology into use from 2020earlier, Russian cosmonaut Sergey Prokopiev said that in the future mars or moon deep space exploration process, radiation effects may be one of the difficult tests facing the team, humans should think about how to fly in deep space to avoid radiation
