Originally aired in February 2009, "Astronaut Down" asks the question, "What happens if on the way to Mars an astronaut develops a scratched infected eye that cannot be treated? Will an eye have to be sacrificed for the sake of the mission?"
Astronaut Down -- a one-hour, for-television documentary -- explores firsthand the real medical risks and dangers that are legion in space exploration.
