Why would human astronauts on a trip to mars need to be worried about solar wind?

The so-called 'solar wind' is a flow of charged particles that are injurious to
living tissue. The reason we never worry about it is that we're protected
from it by the Earth's atmosphere and magnetic field. But if the living
human tissue happens to be in space, in a tin can headed for Mars, then
the Earth's atmosphere and magnetic field are suddenly not there, and
the tissue needs to be shielded somehow from the solar wind particles.
===============================
Because it is so strong that it could blow your spacecraft off-course, and
you would have to use a lot of your precious and limited fuel to keep your
ship on the proper heading toward where you're going to.

Why would human astronauts on a trip to mars need to be concerned about solar wind?
A trip to Mars takes months and involves crossing several million miles of space. This is enough time for the solar widn to affect the trajectory of a space craft.
Why have no astronauts visited the gaseous planets?
The atmosphere of these planets is not suitable for human exploration. Gases and extreme pressure would instantaneously kill astronauts. Funding and the distance to the gaseous would also be reasons we have not visited Jupiter or Saturn.
How would sending astronauts into space to study the solar system compare to using telescopes and space probes?
Far more expensive and far less productive.
Will astronauts disover more planets?
I would suppose that the scientist with the super powered telescopes would discover planets before the astronauts would.
Can astronauts only ever travel to planets and moons in your solar system?
So far, with current technology, yes. Note that the nearest stars are in the order of 10,000 to 100,000 times farther than the planets in our own Solar System. You might imagine a technology that allows astronauts to travel to such other star systems, but that would require enormous technological breakthroughs, and the trip may well take generations - or require the astronauts to be put in some sort of artificial hybernation - another technological breakthrough we haven't achieved yet.
Would astronauts on the surface of the Moon need protection from solar X-rays What about astronauts on the surface of Mars?
OBVIOUSLY

Who is a consumer of solar energy?
The main consumers of solar energy would be human beings.
Should you be worried that the world is going to end?
I would be worried about any individual who was notworried. It is human nature to be concerned and nervous about the unknown.

What countries were involved with lauching of astronauts to Saturn?
There have never been, nor will there ever be, Astronauts who land on Saturn. The gravity is too great, the air pressures are too high and the atmosphere is toxic to human life. A human would be crushed by his/her own weight given the gravity on Saturn. A human could not tolerate the atmospheric pressures on Saturn. A human could not endure the gasses in Saturn's atmosphere.
2 What probably happen if an astronauts suit spacesuit was black?
it would over heat. Black objects typically have a higher solar heat gain coefficient than lighter colors.
What was katniss worried her actions with the bow would do?
She was worried that she would be executed
Can you put the word worried between a and lot?
I suppose you could say "A worried lot" if you mean lot as the noun, and a group of people are all worried, but I would say "The whole group is worried" instead. If you mean that you are worried often, you would say "I get worried a lot" and if you mean that you are extremely worried, then you would say "I am a lot worried" or "I am very worried" which sounds a little better.
