    I also imagine you prep very differently for an 8 day mission vs a 6 month mission. In terms of physical fitness, trainings, family life etc.

      Psychological fitness, too. 8 days away from civilizations is a very different mental state to get into than 8 months away.

        Imagine being stuck in a space station 250 miles away from the human population for 8 months with one other person and they have some annoying roommate quirk, like snoring in their sleep

          Imagine not being able to wank to your preferred porn because of fucking Houston.

          I hope they have Surfshark and Librewolf installed up there.
