aIndividual data are not presented here for the 12-month astronauts to protect their privacy. Both of the 12-month astronauts gave permission for their brain data to be depicted in this work as single subject results.
b n = 10 in each case, except for intermission time where n = 4 because six of the 6-month astronauts were naïve flyers.
cOne of the 12-month astronauts was male, and the other was female.
dBoth of the 12-month astronauts fell within 2 standard deviations of the mean age of the 6-month astronauts.
eIntermission time is calculated as the time from the previous flight’s landing day to the launch day of the present flight.
