Aviation is the occupation that once seemed so fictional, many thought it would take millions of years before the first man would ever touch the heavens. Now it is normalized to travel by air or even work in the sky. As fast as this dream had come true, it came as a double-edged sword. One of the consequences of daring to leave the ground is Cosmic Ionizing Radiation. A series of high-energy particles is sourced from different events in outer space, often outside our own solar system. Solar Particle Events and Galactic Cosmic Radiation are to blame for the heightened radiation levels many aviation employees experience. They must accept the radiation that affects their body and the risks that can develop because of it.
