ABSTRACT
X-rays can be harmful to humans because they disturb our basic atomic structure. The Earth’s ozone and atmospheric envelope protects us from natural X-radiation. Because X-rays are not prevalent on our planet and because they have particular high-frequency characteristics, humans have not evolved any natural ‘immunity’ or protection against damage that might be caused by exposure to X-rays. When X-rays are synthetically generated, they are used in carefully controlled situations to prevent human exposure.
