Men to Mars via Moscow
Six volunteer astronauts from Russia, France, and Germany are in an experiment to see if human beings would be able to withstand the two-year journey to Mars and back. The volunteers begain the second stage of the experiment in Moscow, March 31st They will be locked inside a mock spaceship module until July. The BBC’s Richard Galpin reports.
Every year, it's a weekend of emotional ambiguity marking two medical anniversaries with totally different outcomes.
More recently, a life saving surgery. In the distance, a reminder that one of the few potentially life saving amateur tools in which the public is trained fails 9 of 10 times.
The painful truth is that your best may not be enough to save a loved one. But because they are a loved one, you try... And live with the memory through your Sadderdays.
