“…The idea, specificity, and rationale for human enhancement for space are discussed elsewhere. 32 Human enhancement discussed in the context of space missions includes substantial and invasive enhancements, mainly gene editing. The purpose of such enhancements is the adaptation of humans to hazardous space environments and the minimization of the negative effects of space radiation and microgravity, advancing the progress of space travel.…”

“…Some of the criteria are discussed elsewhere in regards to parameters such as invasiveness, reversibility or inheritance. 11 The nonnegotiable starting point is an assumption that the informed consent of volunteer deep-space astronauts is required. Then, the mission planners should show-this should be their duty when the space program is funded by the public like in the case of NASA, CNSA 12 or Roscosmos 13 why we should take a risk of sending humans to the deep-space and to edit their genomes, which is usually a controversial bioethical issue.…”
