In addition, astronauts who live in space for months at a time often report feeling a form of brain fog, having slower reaction times and making more mistakes than they would on Earth.

When she tells her lips, tongue and jaw to make sounds to form words, an algorithm decodes information coming out of her brain. "This system is trained to know what words should come before other ...
