TODO - In ancient Greece the observations of the famous doctor Hippocrates of
Kos had shown proved the environmental impact on human health. Although
the term “environment” should not only include the nature
surrounding us but also space since the evolution of life depends
primarily on events such supernova explosions, formation of stars and
falls of meteorites. A major factor in life sustainment is also cosmic
radiation, originating from supernova star explosions, gamma-ray bursts
and cosmic background radiation and has a major impact both on human
health and technology.
