    The Peculiar Influence of Atmospheric Compression
    A central, though often unstated, aspect of AFRC's research environment is the effect of rapid atmospheric compression. Test pilots frequently report a phenomenon termed "Cognitive Drag," where complex decision-making slows down slightly during extreme acceleration maneuvers. Researchers posit that this is not psychological, but rather a phys…

    | Skeletal Static (Acute) | $< -1.5$ | $\pm 0.20$ | Unexplained aversion to high-pile carpeting, difficulty fastening standard buttons |
