Episode: 2619 Practicing Medicine Off the Planet; A New Physiology. Today, Astronaut Michael Barratt talks about medicine in space.
It's Friday, November 1, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus How you can bless displaced Christians in Nigeria Open Doors reports that Muslim jihadists are resorting to displacement, violence, kidnapping and murder against our Christian brothers and sisters in sub-Saharan Africa. Right now, there are more than 16.2 million displaced Christians in the region—many of them forced to flee because of their faith in Jesus. Nigerian Pastor Barnabas, who was forced to leave his home, is blunt about the reality. He said, “It is not easy to live in an Internally Displaced Persons camp. If not for God's intervention, if not for God's love, I wouldn't be where I am today.” The partners of Open Doors are on the ground in Nigeria and were able to get emergency aid to the camp where Pastor Barnabas lives. But there are so many more people, like Pastor Barnabas, who need help. When you give $37 through Open Doors, you give vital support to a displaced believer in sub-Saharan Africa, providing food, clothing and shelter.

Proverbs 11:25 says, “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” Madison Square Garden comedian insulted Puerto Ricans at Trump event At Donald Trump's 3-hour-long Madison Square Garden campaign rally on Sunday, which attracted 20,000 people, a no-name comedian, Tony Hinchcliffe, delivered an inexcusable joke at the expense of Puerto Ricans. HINCHCLIFFE: “There's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah. I think it's called Puerto Rico.” Sean Hannity asked Trump for his response on Fox News. TRUMP: “Somebody said there was a comedian that joked about Puerto Rico or something. I have no idea who he is, never saw him, never heard of him. What they've done is taken somebody that has nothing to do with the party, has nothing to do with us, and they try and make a big deal. I've done more for Puerto Rico than any president.” Biden calls Trump supporters “garbage” President Joe Biden reacted to the comedian's remarks. BIDEN: “Donald Trump has no character. He only cares about the billionaire friends he has and accumulated wealth for those at the top. Now, he says immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country. Give me a break. He wants to do away with the birthright citizenship. And just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico ‘a floating island of garbage.' “Well, let me tell you something. They're good, decent, honorable people. The only garbage I see floating out there is [Trump's] supporters.” Trump to Biden: 250 million Americans are not “garbage” At a campaign rally on Wednesday in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Trump reacted to Biden's remarks. TRUMP: “I have to begin by saying 250 million Americans are not garbage. (cheers) This week, Kamala has been comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history. And now, speaking on a call for her campaign last night, Crooked Joe Biden finally said what he and Kamala really think of our supporters. He called them garbage. No way, (boos) no way. “My response to Joe and Kamala is very simple: you can't lead America if you don't love Americans. That's true.” (cheers) And Trump rejected the demonization of his supporters. TRUMP: “For the past nine years, Kamala and her party have called us racist, bigots, fascists, deplorables, irredeemables, Nazis. And they called me Hitler. (boos) They bullied you. They've demonized us. They've censored us. They've de-platformed us. And they weaponized the power of our own government against all of us.” Possible political fallout with Hispanic voters Regarding the potential Election Day fallout to the outrageous comment about Puerto Rico by the no-name comedian, Luke Winkie, a columnist for Slate, said it well. “There's a strong chance that the whole election once again could come down to Pennsylvania, which also happens to be home to one of the highest populations of Puerto Ricans in the United States, comprising about 8 percent of the state's residents.” Prior to the Madison Square Garden controversy, Pew Research documented that 57% of Hispanic voters supported Kamala Harris and 39% supported Donald Trump, which is demonstrably higher than previous GOP presidential candidates. The question is whether he will be able to woo them back before next Tuesday. Selfish couple demands surrogate abort their baby Marty and Melinda Rangers prioritized their busy careers and shunned having children. According to The Daily Mail, after the married couple made a small fortune in the real estate business, they retired early, moved to the Caribbean, and hired a doctor to create their children in a petri dish. The doctor, who was paid $30,000, transferred several of the couple's embryos at an In Vitro Fertilization clinic into the rented womb of a surrogate who was paid $65,000. The contract included a prohibition on drugs and alcohol and a ban on leaving the country for the duration of the pregnancy or the state during the third trimester. Three-and-a-half months into the pregnancy, Melinda found on social media that the young woman they had rented had allegedly consumed alcohol. The woman assured them that it was not a shot of alcohol in the photo, but water. However, Marty said, “After much deliberation, we decided the best thing to do would be to terminate our baby at 20 weeks.” Tragically, the selfish married couple demanded that the young woman, their surrogate, procure a late-term abortion for “breach of contract,” and she did, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Psalm 127:3 says, "Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.” Stranded astronauts returned to Earth last Friday And finally, the astronauts who were stranded aboard the International Space Station for 8 months splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico at 3:29 a.m. Eastern on Friday, October 25th off the coast of Pensacola, Florida, reports GoodNewsNetwork.org. In August, when Boeing's Starliner space capsule scheduled to pick them up had to return to the Earth empty for malfunctions and safety concerns, there must have been a small measure of concern. NASA's SpaceX Crew-8 mission includes Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, Jeanette Epps, and Alexander Grebenkin. During their mission, crew members traveled nearly 100 million miles and completed 3,760 orbits around Earth. They conducted new scientific research to advance human exploration beyond low Earth orbit and benefit human life on Earth. Research and technology demonstrations included conducting stem cell research to develop organoid models for studying degenerative diseases, exploring how fuel temperature affects material flammability, and studying how spaceflight affects immune function in astronauts. Their return to Earth is an answer to many prayers. Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, November 1, in the year of our Lord 2024.

Astronauta de Crew-8 fue hospitalizado después de su regreso a la Tierra Después de casi ocho meses en la Estación Espacial Internacional, cuatro astronautas de la misión Crew-8 de NASA y SpaceX regresaron a la Tierra a bordo de la cápsula Dragon Endeavour.Déjanos tu opinión y síguenos en Spotify Al aterrizar en el Golfo de México, el equipo médico de la NASA los revisó en Florida. Aunque tres de los astronautas fueron dados de alta rápidamente, uno de ellos necesitó quedarse en el hospital en observación por un "problema médico" que no se detalló. Afortunadamente, el astronauta fue dado de alta al día siguiente y está de vuelta en Houston junto a sus compañeros. ¿Qué significa esto para la seguridad de las misiones espaciales largas? La NASA confirma que el astronauta está en buenas condiciones y de regreso en Houston Los astronautas Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt y Jeanette Epps de la NASA, junto al cosmonauta ruso Alexander Grebenkin, aterrizaron cerca de Florida el 25 de octubre, después de una misión de 235 días en el espacio. Durante su tiempo en la Estación Espacial Internacional, hicieron más de 200 experimentos sobre temas como el crecimiento de plantas en microgravedad, estudios de células madre y técnicas para reducir problemas de salud en el espacio. El regreso de Crew-8 se retrasó por problemas técnicos con la cápsula Starliner de Boeing y por el huracán Milton. La cápsula Dragon Endeavour logró completar el regreso sin problemas técnicos. Después del aterrizaje, el equipo de Crew-8 fue llevado al hospital Ascension Sacred Heart Pensacola en Florida. Aunque esta revisión médica es parte del protocolo para astronautas que regresan de misiones largas, uno de los miembros del equipo necesitó quedarse en observación por una situación médica. La NASA no dio más detalles, pero afirmó que se tomó la medida solo como precaución y que el astronauta está bien. Este tipo de monitoreo muestra los desafíos de la salud en misiones espaciales largas y la importancia de los controles médicos al volver a la Tierra. Al día siguiente, el astronauta en observación fue dado de alta y regresó con sus compañeros al Centro Espacial Johnson en Houston, donde completarán el proceso de reacondicionamiento post-vuelo. Este reacondicionamiento ayuda a que los astronautas se readapten a la gravedad y evita problemas de salud después de pasar tanto tiempo en el espacio. Este incidente resalta cómo la NASA y SpaceX cuidan a sus tripulantes y están preparados para manejar cualquier situación médica al regreso. La cápsula Dragon Endeavour volvió a demostrar que es una opción segura para misiones largas en el espacio. La NASA sigue un protocolo estricto para cuidar a los astronautas cuando regresan a la Tierra. Después de meses en microgravedad, el cuerpo pierde fuerza en los músculos y huesos, lo que puede causar problemas temporales al volver a la gravedad terrestre. Estos chequeos médicos ayudan a detectar posibles efectos secundarios y darles el tratamiento necesario. Además, la experiencia que deja esta misión es importante para prepararse para misiones largas, como las futuras expediciones a Marte. La misión Crew-8 mostró una vez más la importancia de los cuidados médicos en el regreso a la Tierra. ¿Qué crees que se debería hacer para apoyar la salud de astronautas en misiones más largas en el futuro?
