India is buzzing with excitement as ISRO prepares for its ambitious human spaceflight program — Gaganyaan — set to mark a historic milestone for the nation later this year.

What Happens to Skin in Space?
You might not think outer space has anything to do with skincare — but it turns out, astronauts face unique challenges with their skin health.
- Skin dehydration due to low humidity
- Accelerated aging from cosmic radiation
- Barrier damage and increased irritation
Even NASA reports that astronauts commonly experience rashes, dryness, and sensitivity while in orbit.
Why It Matters for Us
While we aren’t floating in microgravity, our skin here on Earth battles daily environmental stressors like UV exposure, dust, heat, and pollution — especially in Indian climates.
