Physical Health is more Important than Mental Health for the Astronauts

      Living abroad a space station in orbit around the Earth requires astronauts who are mentally strong. More importantly, it requires physically strong. Both physical health and mental health are important as a requirement to live abroad a space station. Nevertheless, in my opinion, physical health is the most important health. First, it is the most basic requirement for everyone. Everyone should have a good physical health to do his/her daily activities. Moreover, the astronauts need this physical health, because their jobs require them to work harder than the others. How can they survive in a space station if they are weak physically? Second, in a space station, the number of oxygen is different from the number of oxygen in the Earth. This is why, they must bring some stocks of oxygen to live and survive there. It requires also the astronauts to have a good health. Meanwhile, they must be able to adapt themselves with the new place in a space situation. Without a good health, it is impossible to do this kind of job. In brief, physical health is more important and needed than mental health.
