c. nasa hopes to learn from scott and mark how long - term space travel affects health.
d. scott will spend a year on the international space station with various other astronauts.

Explanation:

To determine the central idea of "Mission Twinpossible", we analyze each option:

• Option A: Focuses on Scott and Mark's adventures, not the core of the mission.
• Option B: Talks about NASA's wonder about space's effect, but the mission is about learning from Scott and Mark.
• Option C: NASA hopes to learn from Scott and Mark about long - term space travel's health effects, which aligns with the likely central idea of a mission studying the impact of long - term space travel (as Scott spends time on the ISS).
• Option D: Just states Scott's time on the ISS, not the purpose/central idea.

Answer:

C. NASA hopes to learn from Scott and Mark how long - term space travel affects health.
