After a brutal hot yoga class—mat-soaked, muscles done, head finally clear—I’ve always left with the sense that whatever’s coming tonight, sleep won’t be a problem. I’ll be dead to the world as soon as I hit the pillow

Long space missions can force small crews to endure isolation, cramped living conditions, and intense psychological pressure for months at a time. To better understand how those conditions shape teamwork, an international research group studied a ten-month overwintering mission at Concordia Station in Antarctica
