[i]The [URL=http://www.nasa.gov/content/one-year-mission]One-Year Mission[/URL] will focus on seven categories of research. In March 2015, American Astronaut Scott Kelly and Russian Cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko will begin collaborative investigations on the International Space Station (ISS). They will reside on the ISS for a year, which is twice as long as typical U.S. missions. These investigations are expected to yield beneficial knowledge on the medical, psychological and biomedical challenges faced by astronauts during long-duration space flight. The [URL=http://www.nasa.gov/content/twins-study]Twins Study[/URL] is ten separate investigations coordinating together and sharing all data and analysis as one large, integrated research team. The study will focus on four categories of research. NASA has selected 10 investigations to conduct with identical twin astronauts Scott and Mark Kelly. These investigations will provide broader insight into the subtle effects and changes that may occur in spaceflight as compared to Earth by studying two individuals who have the same genetics, but are in different environments for one year.[/i]
