The naps would not be placed equiphasically, instead occurring more densely during night hours. [28] The U.S. military has studied fatigue countermeasures. An Air Force report states: Each individual nap should be long enough to provide at least 45 continuous minutes of sleep, although longer naps (2 hours) are better.

Individuals with FASPS fall asleep and wake up 4–6 hours earlier than the average population, generally sleeping from 7:30pm to 4:30am. They also have a free running circadian period of 22 hours, which is significantly shorter than the average human period of slightly over 24 hours. [6]
Happy Monday! *Groan.* Is there a worse feeling than realizing it's Sunday night, the weekend is over and you have to wake up early the next morning just to start the weekly grind all over again?

The pilot of the plane reported "I didn't sleep enough last night.

[17] A possible microsleep was recorded as part of the narrative verdict in the inquest into the 2016 Croydon tram derailment. [18]
