Thx for posting Marc.
Aside form the bad news/potential danger the article mentions for Astronauts in space from increasing cosmic rays, it would also be bad news for us on Earth as well since increased cosmic ray flux, especially with low solar output/activity (as evidenced by low current and recent sunspot activity) => more cloud cover = > colder temperatures. Who knows? It perhaps could be the forebear or trigger for a BIG Chill, something akin to the Maunder Minimum or the other more minor minima of the past few hundred years. It's cold enough now in our current winter, at least it feels so -Brrrrrrrr! - No thanks, we don't need a cold downtrend.
Best
