Many years ago, 10 or 15, there was a woman lived solo in a hole as
part of a NASA experiment on the effects of living solo for many weeks (or even months). I can remember she would give interviews to reporters through some microphone set-up (she could never see them, or vice-versa) -- they would ask her the date and time -- and she would always get it wrong because she had no natural light to keep the days straight, and her sleep-awake schedule had shifted considerably. The experiment was to see how well lack of human companianship could be tolerated. I heard rumors througout the years that she killed herself shortly after leaving the hole. If so, the experiment would be a dismal failure. I am looking for information on this experiment: I can't remember her real name. My questions a What was her name? How long was she in the hole for? Did she actually kill herself when she got out? Did scientists recognize signs of depression? Please post to the group; my e-mail is overloaded with SPAM! Thanks in advance for any help. I have wondered about the aftermath of this event for several years now. |
