Research to date into human psychological and sociological effects based on on-orbit near-Earth experiences may have limited generalizability to a long-distance, multi-year space expedition, such as a mission to a near-Earth asteroid (which currently is being considered by NASA) or to Mars. In the case of Mars, new stressors will be introduced ...
This event, plus research indicating that actively photographing the Earth has positive psychological effects, caused Yaden et al. to posit that studying the overview effect might improve understanding of psychological well-being in isolated, confined, extreme (ICE) environments such as space flight. [3] Early photos of Earth taken from space ...
While the psychological impact of climate change is largely negative, related social engagement can have positive effects on mental wellbeing. The psychological impacts of climate change concerns effects that climate change can have on individuals' mental and emotional well-being. People experience a wide range of emotions as they grapple with ...
The psychological effects of living in space have not been clearly analyzed but analogies on Earth do exist, such as Arctic research stations and submarines. The enormous stress on the crew, coupled with the body adapting to other environmental changes, can result in anxiety, insomnia and depression. [108]
Many of the climate change impacts which affect children's physical health also lead to psychological and mental health consequences. [46] Children who live in geographic locations that are most susceptible to the impacts of climate change, and/or with weaker infrastructure and fewer supports and services suffer the worst impacts.

Ten research teams are assembled to conduct an integrated research on the change on physiological, molecular and cognitive level after exposing to long-duration spaceflight. The study also required the astronauts to keep a journal, and investigated the psychological effects of living in a confined space for an extended length of time.
Black carbon in the atmosphere is like dressing Earth in a black shirt on a sunny day. Spaceflight Will Warm Earth’s Stratosphere 4 Degrees, Study Finds Skip to main content
MARS-500 was intended to study the psychological, physiological, and technological challenges inherent to long-duration space flight. Among other hurdles to overcome, the experiment examined the physiological effects of long-term weightlessness, the effectiveness of resource management, and the effects of isolation in a hermetically sealed environment.
