Life on the International Space Station is quite different from life on the ground. Crew members experience multiple sunrises and sunsets each day, spend their time in a confined space, have packed schedules, and deal with microgravity.
These and other conditions during spaceflight can negatively affect the performance and well-being of crew members. Many studies on the space station work
