The article ‘Well-being in isolation: Exploring artistic immersive virtual environments in a simulated lunar habitat to alleviate asthenia symptoms’ presents a study conducted on a simulated lunar habitat. The study uses Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) to mitigate the mental strain on astronauts caused by isolated, confined, and extreme (ICE) conditions. The research found a significant relationship between IVR usage and a reduction in stress-related symptoms, particularly those associated with asthenia, a syndrome often linked to chronic fatigue and weakness.
