Antarctic psychological health as a space analogue
Antarctica is one of the most extreme environments on Earth. The physical, psychological, social and technological parameters associated with this environment parallel those found in space. For this reason, Antarctica is well-recognised as a space analogue. By extension, research investigating psych...
