    Yes, the trip will damage their brains. It will also cause loss of teeth, and impair eyesight. Maybe these are caused by eating all those silkworms? Of course this is all moot since the astronauts will be killed by the cosmic rays. Don't know why the researchers can't connect these dots. They must have impaired eyesight or something.
