  • Going to Extremes NEEMO Case Study
    Going to Extremes NEEMO Case Study In human space flight, crew preparation is paramount. NASA employs various tools in order to best prepare its crews; simulation and simulators, training for specific extravehicular activity (EVA) tasks in its Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory, and survival training. Apollo astronauts participated in desert wilderness survival to hone their skills. NASA has a long history of using terrestrial based activities as space flight analogs to advance science, test hardware and techniques, and develop crew leadership skills and team solidarity. The NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations (NEEMO) is a unique analog that merges elements to develop leadership abilities and build team cohesion with the execution of genuine mission objectives required for human space flight missions, all in an extreme environment. During NEEMO missions, astronauts become aquanauts and simulate living on a spacecraft, testing EVA techniques and tools for future space missions. Crews build leadership skills in an extreme setting, executing relevant mission objectives, allowing the astronaut- aquanaut to develop a genuine mission rhythm. What lessons can be learned from this extreme analog, and how are they being applied to current and future exploration objectives? 1 Going to Extremes NEEMO Case Study Aquanaut A Connection between Space and the Sea A diver who remains at depth underwater One of NASA’s Mercury 7, America’s first class of for longer than 24 hours. astronauts became the connector between space and the sea.

Olson This dissertation is a coordinated ethnographic case study of environmental science, medicine, technology, and design in an American human spaceflight program. Its goal is to investigate how astronautics contributes to shaping "the environment" as an extensive contemporary category of knowledge, politics, and social action. Based on fieldwork conducted primarily at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s Johnson Space Center in Houston Texas from 2005 - 2008, the study argues that, in practical and meaningful ways, ecology and cosmology are co-constituting in American astronautics.
