They fly a simulated spacecraft to the surface of Phobos then do a virtual reality spacewalk. They also work with a simulated robotic arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSome of this research is conducted to look at their levels of autonomy,\u201d Human Research Program\u2019s Flight Analogs Project Manager, Lisa Spence said. In a real mission, the crew will be very far from Earth which will cause communications delays. The crew must work together with only sporadic input from Mission Control. These HERA simulations help provide research data for autonomous conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/hrp\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/hrp\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NASA\u2019s Human Research Program<\/a> requires the crews of all four C5 missions to conduct the same experiments, which enables researchers to identify patterns and variances in the research data. The C5 crewmembers will have less privacy in their crew quarters and in the hygiene module, and less \u201cfree volume\u201d in which to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The HERA Mission Control Center is just outside of the mock spacecraft in Building 220 of JSC. The crew will be monitored while in mission for physiological and psychological effects of extended isolation and confinement, team dynamics, and conflict resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crewmembers for C5M2 are Barret Schlegelmilch of Kent, Washington; Christian Clark of Honolulu, Hawaii; Ana Mosquera of Washington, D.C.; and Julie Mason of Huntsville, Alabama. Banumathi Cole of Charlottesville, Virginia trained with the crew as a backup member. The crewmembers will live in the HERA spacecraft for 45 days without actually leaving JSC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s critically important we\u2019re able to find suitable volunteers, people who mimic or emulate the type of people that we select for astronauts. That\u2019s very important to us,\u201d Spence said.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-none \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1638\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?w=1638\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"jsc2019e030702\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg 3463w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=240,300 240w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=768,960 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=819,1024 819w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=1229,1536 1229w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=1638,2048 1638w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=320,400 320w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=480,600 480w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=720,900 720w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=960,1200 960w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/jsc2019e030702_copy.jpg?resize=1600,2000 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1638px) 100vw, 1638px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Ana Mosquera enters the HERA habitat ready for a 45-day mission followed by one of her four crewmates, Christian Clark. <strong>Credits: NASA<\/strong><\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Campaign 5 is the second campaign to utilize 45-day missions.
