NASA CONTRIBUTES TECHNOLOGY TO WAR AGAINST CANCER
In observance of October as Breast Cancer Awareness
Month, NASA will release information on new ways aerospace
research and technology is helping in the understanding,
detection and treatment of all types of cancer.
A NASA fact sheet available on the Internet highlights
diagnostic technology currently available and features NASA
research and technology that may improve cancer diagnosis,
surgical procedures and drug therapies in the future. The
website address is: http://www.nasa.gov/women/welcome.html
Five critical cancer experiments will be conducted on
the upcoming Space Shuttle mission, STS-95, currently
targeted for launch on Oct. 29. A fact sheet describing
these experiments will be available closer to launch.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death for
Americans. According to the National Cancer Society, 564,800
Americans are expected to die of the disease this year --
more than 1,500 people a day. Men have a one in two
lifetime risk of developing cancer and for women the risk is
one in three. The National Cancer Institute estimates
overall annual costs for cancer at $107 billion.
