UPDATE. Bad science ... (see reader comment) Astronaut Scott Kelly's DNA No Longer Matches Identical Twin's
"Scott, 54, returned in March 2016 from a year aboard the International Space Station — but 7 percent of his genes had changed. In the two years since, they have not returned to normal, NASA says.
Scott’s 340-day stay was longer than NASA’s typical six-month deployments to space, and while it is known that a person’s genes change away from Earth, they did not expect his genes to stay altered."
Reader comment: Nope, nope, nope. Yet another example of how bad reporting happens in the pursuit of clicks.
