NASA's Biocapsule. Could this be the future of medicine?

The NASA Biocapsule is a very impressive solution to a great number of problems that astronauts may face while traveling the universe.  The simple, yet highly effective, capsule is relatively inexpensive and has scientists rethinking the future of medicine.  The possibility that these may be used on Earth within the next 10 years is very exciting.  What would have been science fiction only years ago is now a feasible solution to a number of different diseases and human health problems.  I would like to see this being used to treat people with diabetes, as stated in the article.  Who knows what other ailments may eventually be treated by these Biocapsules?

This is going to be the future of medicine. It is very interesting to see how are forms and methods of medicine change and develop. Just think of the potential that the bio-capsule has on astronauts and its benefit in space.
