Technological advances now allow the planning of deep space exploration missions with the aim to discover new habitats for humankind. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has spearheaded this effort and the research into the identification of risks to crew members associated with such lengthy missions. Exciting work from a multitude of investigators across the US, Europe and Japan have identified oxidative damage as a significant risk to major organs that could pose a threat to the health of the astronauts and the success of the mission. This Special Issue of IJMS is dedicated to providing a comprehensive overview of the identified risks and focus on how oxidative stress specifically could impact major organ systems when exposed to space-relevant conditions such as cosmic/galactic radiation, solar particle events, hypogravity, hyperoxia and hypoxia or a combination of stressors.

The thirteenth volume of Chemical Signals in Vertebrates (CSiV) emanates from the first joint meeting of CSiV and the International Society of Chemical Ecology (ISCE), which was held at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in June 2014. Chemicals involved in communication in both mammals and insects are by and large secondary metabolites—that is, they are generally not molecules involved in the primary physiological processes of life, such as respiration, digestion, excretion, and in the case of green plants, photosynthesis. .
