Risk of Hearing Loss and Performance Decrements Due to Acoustics Issues in Space
Noise exposure in spaceflight can negatively impact hearing, but it can also cause other physiological effects (e.g., irritation, headaches, and degradation in sleep and relaxation). Noise can also affect performance of specific activities (e.g., working and speech communications) and impact crew performance. Even noise that the crew does not perceive as harmful may cause temporary […]
