Use of Photobioreactors in Regenerative Life Support Systems for Human Space Exploration

Use of Photobioreactors in Regenerative Life Support Systems for Human Space Exploration

There are still many challenges to overcome for human space exploration beyond low Earth orbit (LEO) (e.g., to the Moon) and for long-term missions (e.g., to Mars). One of the biggest problems is the reliable air, water and food supply for the crew. Bioregenerative life support systems (BLSS) aim to...
