I think it would be w=very hard to treat medical issues in space as of right now, which is why there are such extensive requirements to become an astronaut as well as much that goes into managing the lifestyle of astronauts in space. However, as space travel becomes easier, I think that the astronauts in space will have to make their medications in space like the medical student in the video said. If the certain medical procedures in space do not work how they do on earth, I think it could stop the mission if the issue is serious enough. I don’t think they would use robots since it is very expensive to send stuff to space and there is limited room and storage on the ships. I think there will have to be more research with people with medical conditions to see if there will be problems and if new diseases will show up and if there will be new advancements in medicine for these new diseases.
