The Human Factors of Aerospace Safety and Mission Success
The most versatile, creative component of an aerospace crewed activity is the human in the loop. It is also the most challenging, as humans are impacted by the entire system.
These impacts can be felt in the areas of nutrition, performance, sleep, and social connection. Advanced technologies, like Artificial Intelligence (AI) may be or assistance, but they may result in additional demands on the human. This panel will address these topics and more.
