Privacy only found in the sleeping pod
As part of ESA's SOLIS8 isolation study, three men and three women simulated a space mission for eight days. Participants had their own sleeping cabins within the module - the only areas besides the toilets that were not monitored by cameras. The study, conducted at DLR's :envihab facility, is preparation for a 100-day isolation study in 2026.
