Have you heard?
Astronaut Scott Kelly and Cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko are doing tests on an International Space Station, as well as undergoing an experiment themselves which will break the record for the longest stay in space (which now stands at one continuous year). Kelly's twin brother, also an astronaut is staying down on earth as the control subject.

What do you think it would be like to be isolated from the world for one year, on a space station? What would you encounter, and what would you do to keep from boredom, or worse? Talk about extreme cabin fever! Not to mention the ultimate long-distance relationships. Will your characters break the record, will they give up, or will something sabotage them?
