MW: Any large space island worth living in is going to
have grass, trees, forest, and lakes anyway. And
that's going to mean soil and water several meters
deep. And it only takes about 5 meters of soil to
protect humans from even the most penetrating cosmic
rays. And that doesn't even include the debt of the
atmosphere inside of the space island. So for the most
part, large space islands-- which I call cosmodromes--
will be inherently safe from cosmic radiation.
