ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli during training at Star City, 15 November 2010. One of the scientific experiments during his long-duration mission is Neurospat measuring the effect of Gravitational Context on EEG Dynamics. It is a study of spatial cognition, novelty processing and sensorimotor integration, composed of two principal experimental tasks: visual orientation and visuomotor tracking, plus additional, standardized electroencephalogram (EEG) tasks performed as a means of assessing general effects of the space station environment on EEG signals.
