11. Offgassing Characterization of the Columbus Laboratory Module

Abstract

Trace gaseous contamination in the cabin environment is a major concern for manned spacecraft, especially those designed for long duration missions, such as the International Space Station (ISS). During the design phase, predicting the European-built Columbus laboratory module s contribution to the ISS s overall trace contaminant load relied on "trace gas budgeting" based on material level and assembled article tests data. In support of the Qualification Review, a final offgassing test has been performed on the complete Columbus module to gain cumulative system offgassing data. Comparison between the results of the predicted offgassing load based on the budgeted material/assembled article-level offgassing rates and the module-level offgassing test is presented. The Columbus module offgassing test results are also compared to results from similar tests conducted for Node 1, U.S. Laboratory, and Airlock modules.

Abstract

Plant cultivation in large-scale closed environments is challenging and several key technologies necessary for space-based plant production are not yet space-qualified or remain in early stages of development. The Horizon2020 EDEN ISS project aims at development and demonstration of higher plant cultivation technologies, suitable for near term deployment on the International Space Station (ISS) and from a long-term perspective, within Moon and Mars habitats. The EDEN ISS consortium, as part of the performed activities, has designed and built a plant cultivation system to have form, fit and function of an European Drawer Rack 2 (EDR II) payload, with a modularity that would allow its incremental installation in the ISS homonymous rack, occupying from one-quarter rack to the full system. The construction phase is completed, and the developed system is being tested in a laboratory environment, planned for further validation at the highly-isolated German Antarctic Neumayer Station III, in a container-sized test facility to provide realistic mass flow relationships and interaction with a crewed environment. This paper describes the system as built and the key results of the first ISPR plant growth facility laboratory tests.

Abstract

Plant cultivation in large-scale closed environments is challenging and several key technologies necessary for space-based plant production are not yet space-qualified or remain in early stages of development. The EDEN ISS project foresees development and demonstration of higher plant cultivation technologies, suitable for future deployment on the International Space Station and from a long-term perspective, within Moon and Mars habitats. The EDEN ISS consortium will design and test essential plant cultivation technologies using an International Standard Payload Rack form factor cultivation system for potential testing on-board the International Space Station. Furthermore, a Future Exploration Greenhouse will be designed with respect to future planetary bio-regenerative life support system deployments. The technologies will be tested in a laboratory environment as well as at the highly-isolated German Antarctic Neumayer Station III. A small and mobile container-sized test facility will be built in order to provide realistic mass flow relationships. In addition to technology development and validation, food safety and plant handling procedures will be developed. This paper describes the goals and objectives of EDEN ISS and the different project phases and milestones. Furthermore, the project consortium will be introduced and the role of each partner within the project is explained.

Abstract

Through the use of experimental data and Monte Carlo simulations we investigate the shielding properties of spacecraft-shell compositions exposed to 1 GeV/nucleon ^56Fe ions, representative of the worst part of the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) spectrum. Through the use of the Geant4 Radiation Analysis for Space (GRAS) tool, the dose reduction and the ^56Fe-fragmentation induced by those structures currently used to protect part of the International Space Station (ISS) or designed for future inflatable habitats, are analyzed. The possible effects on spacecraft electronics are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Abstract

EXPLORA Siamo soli nell’universo? Qual è l’origine della vita sulla Terra? Potremo un giorno realizzare insediamenti umani al di fuori del nostro pianeta utilizzando le piante quale fonte di energia e vita? Il viaggio inizia ...... e ci porta nello spazio profondo, dove solo sonde sofisticate possono arrivare. Ma saliremo anche a bordo della stazione spaziale internazionale dove astronauti, provenienti da ogni parte del mondo, soggiornano ininterrottamente da più di 15 anni, alternando vari equipaggi. Esploriamo per comprendere l’universo che ci circonda, la capacità della vita di adattarsi a condizioni estreme e ricercarla altrove. Abbiamo esplorato pianeti rocciosi, pianeti giganti e messo in luce il grande interesse esobiologico di mondi quali Europa, Encelado e Ganimede che nascondono, con ogni probabilità, un oceano di acqua al di sotto della loro superficie. Come Marte, di cui, nel 2018, è stata accertata, da un radar italiano a bordo della sonda Mars Express, la presenza di acqua allo stato liquido nel sottosuolo. Una grandissima scoperta scientifica che fa onore al nostro paese. Siamo atterrati sulla Luna, Venere, Marte, Titano e persino su una cometa, la Churyumov-Gerasimenko dove abbiamo trovato il più semplice degli amminoacidi (la glicina), ma anche il fosforo (che si trova negli acidi nucleici). L’uomo, nel frattempo, ha costruito una casa/laboratorio, che viaggia veloce , orbitando 400Km sopra alla Terra. Questa sofisticata e complessa struttura potrà fornire indicazioni e risposte utili sulla nostra concreta possibilità di vivere su altri pianeti. Perché è lì che un giorno vorremmo arrivare. E così, i viaggi robotici interplanetari e le missioni umane vanno a braccetto. Gli uni esplorando i pianeti e, le altre, la possibilità che l’uomo possa vivere in luoghi diversi e lontani scrutati e studiati dalle sonde che lo hanno preceduto. Ad oggi Marte è considerata la meta più probabile, ma sono diverse le destinazioni potenzialmente interessanti nel nostro sistema solare. Questo piccolo, grande viaggio è quello che faremo insieme nelle pagine che seguono...... R. Battiston
