Astronauts who visited the moon probably have a slightly higher risk of cancer during their lifetimes, but still remain unlikely to become ill because of it.

wikipedia is only used by morons like yourself
it is all false info...in fact the radiation was highest when they went on their so called mission....their cameras werent protected either..so they would have been useless..the radiation would have wiped the film clean....also..the space station is inside the radiation belt to counter your idiocy in another post.
it is inside the radiation belt...get it?
