Four female engineers and researchers in Kazakhstan recently concluded a 10-day isolation experiment from October 1 to 10. The team performed cognitive and behavioral studies, physiological measurements, and assessed the capsule's engineering systems. At the end of the experiment, only three participants remained, with valuable data gathered to enhance the national astronaut training program.
The findings from the isolation experiment, named SANA-1, will play a crucial role in shaping the country's future astronaut training initiatives. The research conducted by the all-female crew will contribute to advancing knowledge in space exploration and preparing for future manned missions.
