10. What is it like being in space with other people for so long? (A K2S Question)

Being in space means being with a very small group of people in a very small space station or ship—about the size of a two-bedroom home. Exploratory teams to the Moon and Mars will also be small at first. Seeing the same people everyday means that it will be easy to get tired of them and to want to see others. The teams will need to be very good at getting along with people in these conditions in order to stay friends and work well together.
