Research has found some dramatic changes that happen to our brains when we're off-world. The researchers found that ventricles expand and the brain floats higher in the skull after about 2 weeks in space, and it can take years for things to go back to normal. A one-way trip to Mars would take about 9 months, and once there, you'd experience just 38% of the gravity of Earth. What do you think living on Mars will mean for the future of the human body?
