What happens to your brain in space?
Spending time in microgravity causes significant changes to the human brain, including fluid shifts that can alter its shape and position within the skull. These changes may persist for months after returning to Earth, affecting vision, motor skills, and cognitive function. Scientists are studying these effects to better prepare astronauts for long-duration space missions.
