Agnirva.com Expedition - #03 Psychology & Space

"Space & Psychology"is an interdisciplinary field that explores the psychological aspects of human space exploration and the effects of the space environment on human behavior, cognition, and mental well-being. It delves into the unique challenges and opportunities presented by space missions, ranging from long-duration space travel to living and working in confined and isolated environments, such as space stations or future planetary habitats. Researchers in this field investigate various psychological factors, including team dynamics, communication patterns, stress management, sleep and circadian rhythms, psychological adaptation, and the impact of long-term isolation on mental health. By understanding the psychological dimensions of space exploration, experts aim to develop effective strategies, interventions, and technologies that support the well-being and performance of astronauts, ultimately contributing to the success of future manned missions and the sustainability of human presence beyond Earth.
