Google News • 1/17/2026 – 1/18/2026
Summary
Astronauts experience changes in their brains after time in space, with studies indicating that their brains shift inside their skulls, becoming "backward and upward and tilted." MRI data suggests that spaceflight temporarily alters the position and shape of astronauts' brains, leading to lasting changes upon their return to Earth.
