Well, he’s not technically on fire all the time, but he is a flaming asshole, if that’s what you meant.

Realistically: They spent more than 180 days, after that milestone shit gets weird. Men start to go blind, muscle mass stops being able to be maintained, spinal disks goes weird, fertility is permanently negatively effected, etc. It’s invaluable data to study then even if they aren’t reporting symptoms.

Conspiracy: they’re space zombies now.

One of the crew, who has not been identified, was “briefly detained” at the hospital but was released “in good health” to continue what it called post-flight reconditioning, the US space agency said at the time.

This is not news. It was probably not even space-related.

It’s absolutely space related, there are serious health problems associated with even a couple months in zero-g.
