It's why I have low hopes for space - especially Mars.

Getting there and living there will produce even more extreme psychological and emotional pressures. But the people at the sharp end of them will be more used to 24/7 access to memes, selfies, and virtual dramas.

Even the most stable are likely to have limited experience of entertaining and supporting each other in person in a low-drama way without easy access to external support.

Imagine being stranded for years with only disco music and a steady diet of potatoes.

And eventually the ketchup is going to run out.

Presumably the memes would flow, they'd just be a bit delayed :)

They'd have the freshest "All Your Base" memes though.
