Study recommends mandatory 3-year vacation so astronauts' brains can recover
Scientists studying the brains of astronauts have discovered startling changes brought on by microgravity that has led them to recommend a three-year break between missions.
"Many astronauts travel to space more than one time, and our study shows it takes about three years between flights for the ventricles to fully recover," Seidler. It's not all bad news, though:"We were happy to see that the changes don't increase exponentially, considering we will eventually have people in space for longer periods."
