The alien and perilous dust on the moon has prompted scientists to ponder lunar health standards that would be set before astronauts go there again. A diverse team that includes flight surgeons, industry air quality experts, toxicologists, lunar geologists, and even an astronaut is examining how harmful lunar dust could be to humans. "Lunar dust is unlike any kind of dust we're used to breathing on Earth," said Noreen Khan-Mayberry, space toxicologist at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. She and other members of the Lunar Airborne Dust Toxicity Advisory Group (LADTAG) have some concerns about the toxicity of the chemically reactive lunar dust grains, which also contain nano-particles of natural metal and glass shards formed from a combination of chemical reactions, meteorite impacts and solar wind bombardment. LADTAG will help NASA set health standards for astronaut exposure to the dust — a necessary step for designing the spacecraft, rovers
