Abstract

NewsPictured here inside a cave in the Italian Apennines, Marco Sieber is part of an international team of astronauts who spent four days living and working underground to simulate the cramped, isolated conditions of spaceflight as part of a European Space Agency training programme. The group had to navigate uneven terrain, including vertical drops of 20 metres, and run experiments to monitor the cave environment.PHOTO (COLOR) [Extracted from the article]
