The article is actually encouraging and positive, as the researchers
found ways to reduce the impact of radiation on astronauts
travelling in space for extended journeys.
It's not unreasonable to expect that when people are beyond Earth's
sheltering atmosphere, and outside the magnetosphere, they will face
hazards - and so if long journeys in space are to be made by humans,
such as a trip to Mars, we will have to deal with those hazards.
