    Design and performance of the KSC Biomass Production Chamber (1987)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: NASA's Controlled Ecological Life Support System program has instituted the Kennedy Space Center 'breadboard' project of which the Biomass Production Chamber (BPC) presently discussed is a part. The BPC is based on a modified hypobaric test vessel; its design parameters and operational parameters have been chosen in order to meet a wide range of plant-growing objectives aboard future spacecraft on long-duration missions. A control and data acquisition subsystem is used to maintain a common link between the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, the illumination system, the gas-circulation system, and the nutrient delivery and monitoring subsystems.

    From Project Mercury to the Breadboard Project (2019)
    In:  CASI

    Publication Date: 2019-07-25
    Description: NASA's Project Mercury began as a response to the cold war with the Soviet Union and had a number of goals: to place a manned spacecraft in orbital flight around the earth; to investigate man's performance capabilities and his ability to function in the environment of space and to recover the man and the spacecraft safely. One aspect of preflight testing included the use of an altitude chamber to test each capsule and allow the astronauts to engage in simulated missions within a vacuum environment. Flash forward to 1985. The Biomedical Operations and Research Office at Kennedy Space Center proposed to use the chamber for an unusual mission under what was known as the Controlled Ecological Life Support Systems (CELSS)Breadboard Project. During 1985 into 1987, the chamber was converted to an environmentally-controlled, hydroponic plant growth chamber termed the "Biomass Production Chamber" and operated through late 2001.

    A 'breadboard' biomass production chamber for CELSS (1987)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The Breadboard Project of the Controlled Ecological Life Support System (CELSS) Program is the first attempt by NASA to integrate the primary components of a bioregenerative life support system into a functioning system. The central component of this project is a Biomass Production Chamber (BPC). The BPC is under construction, and when finished will be sealed for the study of the flux of gases, liquids, and solids through the production module of a CELSS. Features of the CELSS breadboard facility will be covered as will design requirements for the BPC. Cultural practices developed for wheat for the BPC wil be discussed.
