Reanalysis of the Mars500 experiment reveals common gut microbiome alterations in astronauts induced by long-duration confinement
Maintaining astronaut health throughout long-duration spaceflight is essential to the feasibility of a manned mission to Mars. The ground-based Mars500 experiment investigated long-duration health by isolating six astronauts for 520 days, the longest controlled human confinement study conducted to d...
