Longest Space Mission For The U.S

   
        A veteran astronaut Captain Scott Kelly, will set the record for the longest single space mission for an American.  NASA announced this on Monday. It is going  to be a one- year mission to the International Space Station in 2015. This trip will help scientist see the effects and living conditions in space for the human body. This one- year increment will expand our knowledge on the effects of microgravity on a human body as NASA prepares for future missions. This is going to help contribute to planning for missions to other celestial worlds, such as an asteroid or Mars.

A powerful new tool in the fight against breast cancer. Doctors and scientist agree that an early detection the best defense against breast cancer. Detecting them at an early stage , betters the chance of survival, and now the best way to detect is through digital Mammography. The picture is more clear when you see it in 3D because the breast is 3D it helps to notice any lumps that may have formed. What the mammogram does  is takes multiple images in a second, much like taking pictures in layers. Studies show it is more accurate then mammography alone to detect early breast cancer.
