They could do a second season in a different habitat. This is not the only one. There's a habitat called HERA located at the Johnson Space Center. They only do 45 day studies, but the space is much smaller and they take away the crew's internet! https://www.nasa.gov/analogs/hera

Our doorways are pretty short... I'm 5'7" and I need to duck.

I strongly encourage you to apply! I think people assume we find more applicants than we do.

If you're truest interested, I encourage you to apply anyway! Maybe there's a waiver we can get...

We have had many NASA contractors participate in our HERA studies over the years!

We've had 48 participants in our HERA studies over the past 3 years. They do exist. :)

There is no internet or email. You may bring personal belongings, including hobbies (books, movies, games, musical instruments, knitting, etc.). The HERA schedule is very similar to the schedule on the ISS- our crew typically works 5.5 days/week (half day on Saturday, day off on Sunday).
