One hundred days of solitude
Six volunteers spent 105 days in an isolation module as part of an international experiment in preparation for a manned space mission to Mars. Under constant surveillance, the all-male crew carried out 72 different experiments to gather data in readyness for a mission to Mars. All the key aspects of a long spaceship flight were simulated - barring of course the effects of weightlessness and solar radiation, which are more easily researched on the international space station. The participants found the experiments very interesting and commented that they felt it was important to give the volunteers feedback about the progress of the experiments. Monotony was the main difficulty encountered by the volunteers. Samples for analysis were delivered to researchers through a hatch in the isolation module, and researchers also monitored medical data, including exhalation bags as part of on-going research to find efficient non-invasive methods of diagnosing diseases at an early stage. This is important for astranauts but can also help people on earth. Scientists across Europe are calling this mission a success, although the findings have not yet been disclosed. The analysis of the data will primarily be used to prepare the next stage of the Mars-500 experiment, planned to begin in 2010 with another crew of participants. The experiments during the 105 days were primarily on the medical effects on the men - that is, in the psychological and physiological fields. Stress linked with …

@ohwello Countries are like children with ridiculous grudges and ridiculous logic behind those grudges. The’re also as stubborn as a donkey, so that would never work.
From what I have seen, the European Space Agency is usurping our (the US) role as the leading force in manned space exploration. We landed a man on the f*cking moon six times! We should not let that tradition be outsourced to other countries!
@ohwello That is one of the BEST idea’s I have read in sometime! As we progress in are evolution either two things will happen. 1… We do and help further are species, or 2… very sadly and truly horrific, we destroy are selfs….
why dont e just eradicate them takeover their land than with our allys we than set out for taking over planets :D
@TheChessmaster9000 those are great reasons why it shouldn’t be done.
@ohwello great idea! nazis working with jews… taliban working with americans,.. …no
This experiment is a waste of time and money. Magellan’s voyage only had a small crew that lasted several months across the pacific alone, in far worse conditions than a space vessel, and they could manage it. Why can’t a crew do the same on a mission to Mars? Are modern astronauts really so fragile they need to be handled with kid-gloves?
They’ve had the tech to go to Mars for over 20 years now. It’s time to close the talk-shops, walk the walk and GO.
@GodKillerAtheist Bahahaha. I’m so stoned right now and am laughing my ass off at this!
fuckING FRENCH FUCK IS HE SAYING
@sk8ninja2 Logically you can’t disprove a negative. So I don’t need to prove what you claim before disproving it since it disproves it self, by not having any proof. There really is nothing for me to argue. The word Hell comes form the word “sheol” a place that the dead and garbage were burned. Later they burned criminals there as punishment. Hell is not supernatural. I suggest you stay on topic, you are obviously a light weight in this field. Take care
@GodKillerAtheist We’ll show you proof when you show us proof that he’s not real, and, you couldn’t kill him anyway, as soon as you die you will spend eternity in hell, i know, i know ” Show me proof there is a hell” SEVEN FUCKING WORDS- TENACIOUS D AND THE PICK OF DESTINY!!
Weed makes monotony bliss
@eDrifter1 That’s really all they can do QQ haha!!!
boo hoo
@mearon1
What do you imagine is coming my way? I’d like to hear that nonsense.
Better I’d like to hear your Proof for what you might claim =)
I feel sorry for you because you’re still chained to the lie.
@GodKillerAtheist R u fuckin serious? God killer? thats what u want to call urself? I feel sorry for you because of whats coming your way.
just found, nice video
Yes, but the idea of competition allows people to work harder. We would have never gotten to the moon if it weren’t for competition.
:]
A world space agency could be a good idea.. it would definitely have a larger budget and perhaps allow us to go out into space where we should already be.
2030 now?! well done obama well done.
i blame the vatican for keeping society from progressing
