In the JAXA experiment, eight people were confined to a closed room resembling a space station for two weeks. The aim of the study was to evaluate the mental states and stress levels of the participants under the responsibility of Satoshi Furukawa. It later turned out that there were cases of falsification and incorrect data, but JAXA did not explain exactly what was wrong.
He had spent 167 days aboard the International Space Station.
JAXA also pointed out that the results of the experiment are not published in the form of a scientific article, so there is no violation of Japanese law that can be equated with data forgery or falsification. However, JAXA plans to punish those responsible, including Furukawa.
