TL;DR Summary

Researchers have discovered a potential cure for cancer in space, where microgravity accelerates the growth of cancer cells, allowing for faster observation of their progression. The protein ADAR1 was found to proliferate rapidly in space tumors, leading to the development of drugs like fedratinib and rebecsinib, which block ADAR1 activation and prevent the formation of malignant proteins. The experimental drug rebecsinib is being prepared for clinical trials on Earth, with hopes of it becoming a "kill switch for cancer."
