NASA Oxygen and Water Production Architectures for Early Reusable LanderThe presentation covers two recent studies Lunar In Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) systems to produce propellant for an early reusable lander architecture. The first study examines the hardware, power, and operations required to produce 10 metric tons of oxygen per year near the lunar south pole using the Carbothermal Reduction process. The second study examines the hardware, power, and operations to mine and process 15 metric tons of water from a permanently shadowed crater near Shackleton crater.
