We need some of that shit growing in our space stations. And maybe we could use to give some of its genes to ourselves to help survive out there

Can that work? Radiation damages genes in unpredictable ways because its wavelength is smaller than the dna itself, right? How might that work for something more complex than fungi?

Why do you think this fungus would absorb more radiation than e.g. a similar volume of water?
