'God's finger'

The creepy image of human cells in space has revealed what will happen once the body lives on orbit.

Often, astronauts mainly capture impressive images of the universe.

However, in this case, they recorded the human cell image on the International Space Station (ISS), providing a unique view of the body's response in orbit.

The picture above, named 'Lord's Finger' , revealed a monocyte in a translucent state, high in color with green spots.

The European Space Agency (ESA) says some cells, such as muscles and the immune system, are always on the move, while those in bones are fixed.

Identifying the effects of space flights on cell mobility is very important, especially for astronauts and space mission designers in the future.

On the ground, the mobility of cells depends on the integrity of the internal cell structure, called the cell frame.

The expert group, including researchers at Sassari University (Italy), discovered that the cell frame changes in zero gravity, causing the cell's activity to stagnate.

The process may be one of the reasons astronauts suffer from weak immune systems when working in orbit.

The work could provide more information before mankind conducts missions to escape the borders of the Solar System.
