Neuroplasticity as a Foundation for Decision-Making in Space

This is an exploratory review of two very recent, intersecting segments space science: neuroplasticity in space, and decision-making space. The high level humans leads to unfortunate neurological physical deconditioning while the body adjusts new environment. However, may also allow recovery continued functioning at a necessary for mission completion. Cosmic radiation, microgravity, heightened levels carbon dioxide spacecraft, other factors are being explored as root causes goal this paper explore some lines causation that show how these affect capacity make decisions Either alone or groups, it remains essential retain ability will save lives, protect equipment, complete missions, return safely Earth. A final section addresses healthcare, medical intervention, remediation could help “harness” before, during, after spaceflight. dual nature human renders both cause problems potentially foundation remediation. future research on promises be full surprises, welcome otherwise. It exciting time medicine.
