    Description: Crewmembers' ability to adjust to changes in gravity and sensorimotor function is essential for successful suited mobility in lunar and planetary missions. Setups for current pressurized spacesuit testing require suit technicians, specialized medical clearances, and test support personnel along with increased risk to the subject. Furthermore, suited setups constrain the types of additional hardware that can be used. A test bed was developed with the goal to evaluate human suited performance using an unpressurized Mark III mockup suit and virtual reality (VR) system.

Furthermore, suited setups constrain the types of additional hardware that can be used. A test bed was developed with the goal to evaluate human suited performance using an unpressurized Mark III mockup suit and virtual reality (VR) system. The mockup suit provides a means of performing proof-of-concept tasks for suited performance with lower time and cost demands. Additionally, VR goggles provide a means for projecting an immersive planetary environment and applying perturbations to the visuo-vestibular system with minimal equipment. Furthermore, the test bed will be developed to allow room for improvement in fidelity for future suited applications.

    Description: A well-known hazard associated with exposure to the space environment is the risk of failure from an impact from a meteoroid and orbital debris (MMOD) particle. An extravehicular mobility unit (EMU) spacesuit impact during a US extravehicular activity (EVA) is of great concern as a large leak could prevent an astronaut from safely reaching the airlock in time resulting in a loss of life. A risk assessment is provided to the EVA office at the Johnson Space Center (JSC) by the Hypervelocity Impact Technology (HVIT) group prior to certification of readiness for each US EVA. Need to understand the effect of updated meteoroid and orbital debris environment models to EMU risk.

    Description: The allowable leakage rate for space hardware is typically specified as scc/sec of helium. It is important to be able to use the measured helium leakage rate to calculate the expected leakage rate of the working fluid. In this U.S. Spacesuit Knowledge Capture seminar, Dr. Eugene Ungar will explore the physical configuration of typical leak paths, discuss the physics of molecular, transition, and continuum flow, and present the accepted method of conservatively calculating the expected leakage rate of the working fluid.

    Description: This report describes research conducted under Cooperative Agreement 80NSSC18K0042 for the Human Factors and Behavioral Performance Element, Human Research Program, located at the National Aeronautics and Space Administrations (NASA) Johnson Space Center. The research addresses the Risk of Inadequate Mission, Process, and Task Design and the Risk of Performance Errors Due to Training Deficiencies during exploration-class space missions by identifying the tasks that will be conducted by human crew during an expedition to Mars and the abilities, skills, and knowledge that will be required of crew members. By focusing on an expedition to Mars, we have considered the extremes of what is possible for human space exploration during the first half of the 21st Century and accommodated the human requirements for missions to asteroids, Cis-Lunar orbit, and a return to the Moon.

    Description: Long-duration space missions will eventually require a fresh food supply to supplement crew diets, which means growing crops in space. The Passive Orbital Nutrient Delivery System (PONDS) is a new plant growth approach that contains both an area for a contained substrate and a reservoir for water and/or plant nutrient solutions. Ground studies have shown that the system facilitates both reliable water delivery to seeds for germination (e.g., while avoiding overwatering), and transport of water from the reservoir for improved plant growth while providing nutrients and oxygen to the root zone. In ground prototypes a capillary mat wicking material passively links the water/nutrient solution reservoir to a removable rooting module containing a substrate adapted to support plant growth. Oxygen permeable membranes are incorporated into both the reservoir walls and the rooting modules, bringing in oxygen from outside of the system into the reservoir and then into the rooting modules where the plant roots proliferate. Water is delivered from the reservoir to the substrate contained within the rooting module through the use of wicking material inserted into the plant growth substrate both from the bottom and from the sides of the rooting module. The capillary mat material is intrinsically hydrophilic and continuously wicks water to the substrate throughout the plant growth interval. The system is therefore self-watering in terms of supplying water to the root zone encompassed within the rooting module on demand. At the top, a hydrophilic phenolic foam plug surrounds the wick in the seed insertion zone, and both contains the substrate within the rooting module, and facilitates removal of excess moisture from the capillary mat wick before it can encompass seeds prior to germination. This work is supported by NASAs Space Life and Physical Sciences and Research Applications Division (SLPSRAD).

    Description: On board the International Space Station, particulate HEPA filters known as Bacterial Filter Elements (BFE's) are used as the main ventilation filters on the US modules. They consist of two stages of filtration, a static screen filter and a HEPA filter element. Historically, these filters have performed well during the life of the ISS. However, as NASA sets its sights towards mission beyond low earth orbit, or deep space, more capable filters requiring minimal maintenance will be essential because of the nature of these remote and of long duration missions. Therefore NASA is currently developing new filter systems for these mission. One of the filter designs being considered is a new filter system, coined the Scroll BFE. This filter provides two stages of filtration. The first stage is a pre-filter stage using a roll of screen media on a motorized spooling, or scrolling, mechanism to automate the change-out of the screen media in the flow. The second and finishing stage is a static HEPA filter element similar to the ones used on the ISS BFE's. The volume and dimensional format of the filter matches that of the ISS BFE which facilitates is deployment as potential future flight technology demonstration on board the ISS. Ground tests are underway to assess the filter system's performance under industrial standard test protocols applied in a custom designed filtration test stand. In addition, a method of generating relevant particulate matter loads, such as loose fibrous matter, is also being devised to challenge the filter in testing. The latter test challenge will help determine the pre-filter's capacity for handling layers of lint, or fibrous, particulate matter. Early results confirm HEPA efficiency performance of the HEPA stage. This paper will present the results of ground testing of the Scroll Filter System prototype.
