Conceptual Overview of Post-Mission Human Readiness Frameworks

As civilian and commercial spaceflight transitions from isolated missions to repeatable systems, questions of human readiness increasingly extend beyond launch and in-flight performance. This conceptual overview examines post-mission human readiness as an emerging interdisciplinary domain, framing it as a systems-level and governance-related challenge rather than a purely medical concern. The paper outlines key considerations relevant to sustainable scaling of spaceflight activities.
