Aims:
The purpose of this task is to conduct ground validation of the measures and countermeasures developed as part of the study ‘Developing, maintaining, and restoring team cohesion.’ Addresses metric for interim progress (3) solicit studies to verify and validate candidates in ground analogs and assess effectiveness, feasibility, acceptability.
Ground Analog Resources
|
Ground-Based Flight Analogs
- Controlled Research Analog, Short Duration (2 months or less) – isolated and confined with spaceflight mission scenario [e.g., HERA, NEEMO]
- ICE Field Analog, Long Duration (4 months or more) – isolated, confined and extreme; may not have spaceflight mission scenario [e.g., Antarctica]
