An anomic environment is a situation encountered during 40 days in underground cavities. That is the definition of the DEEP TIME mission. In this environmental and experimental framework, the ethological approach was implemented. It offers complementarity and enriches the knowledge resulting from the investigations in the space domain but also from the wide range of analogous situations that are confined and isolated environments. The first object of the study is to follow day after day, cycle after cycle, relevant behavioral indicators through a quantitative description of the social dynamics of the "timonauts"<em>.</em></p> ER -
