Experiments on astronaut mice prove humanity has a chance to land on Mars

Astronauts go through an episode of loss of bone density during extended microgravity missions. This is why there have been very few lunar landing missions in the history of space science. A quick loss of bone density is deemed life-threatening, and this has been a major factor that space agencies are supposed to address before humans can be sent to Mars.
