group entry I'm thinking something from Pournelle & Niven's Footfall
The idea is to help you stay asleep, but it looks like a difficult device to get to sleep in in the first place. How is this thing better than an oxygen tent?
And you realize, of course, that soon you will be suffering from work apnea? :-)
It's not just the O2, but the mask sends presurized air in your nose. Forcing it past your most likely partly blocked airways. It happens at night as your tounge and throat muscle relax and close in on each other.
The mask is very light weight and once you get the straps adjusted and get used to it, you don't notice it.
