Low-Power, Chip-Scale, Carbon Dioxide Gas Sensors for Spacesuit Monitoring
(48th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2018-07-08)
N5 Sensors, Inc. through a Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contract award has been developing ultra-small, low-power carbon dioxide (CO2) gas sensors, suited for monitoring CO2 levels inside NASA spacesuits. Due ...
Chip-Scale, Nanoengineered CO2 Gas Sensors for Integrated Spacesuit Monitoring
(47th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2017-07-16)
NASA and N5 Sensors, Inc. through a STTR program are jointly developing ultra-small, low-power carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) gas sensors, ideally suited for integrated space suit monitoring. During extravehicular ...
Advanced Supported Liquid Membranes for Carbon Dioxide Control in Cabin Applications
(46th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2016-07-10)
The development of new, robust, life support systems is critical to NASA’s continued progress in space exploration. One vital function is maintaining the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the cabin at levels that do ...

Exploration Portable Life Support System Hatch Component Implementation and Testing
(50th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 7/12/2021)
NASA has plans to go back to the Moon. In order to do this, a new spacesuit is being designed for microgravity, cislunar, and lunar surface exploration. The design for the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (xEMU) ...
Results from Carbon Dioxide Washout Testing Using a Suited Manikin Test Apparatus with a Space Suit Ventilation Test Loop
(46th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2016-07-10)
NASA is developing an advanced portable life support system (PLSS) to meet the needs of a new NASA advanced space suit. The PLSS is one of the most critical aspects of the space suit providing the necessary oxygen, ...
U.S. Spacesuit Knowledge Capture – A Decade of Archiving
(48th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2018-07-08)
As NASA prepares to send astronauts to Mars, the NASA U.S. Spacesuit Knowledge Capture (SKC) Program is ready to assist the spacesuit community by collecting and preserving spacesuit-related knowledge. This has been the ...
Design and Development Comparison of Rapid Cycle Amine 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0
(46th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2016-07-10)
The development of the Rapid Cycle Amine (RCA) swing-bed technology for carbon dioxide (CO2) removal has been in progress since favorable results were published in 1996. Shortly thereafter, a prototype was designed, ...
Robust Liquid Volume Sensor for Flexible Bladders in Microgravity
(49th International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2019-07-07)
The Portable Life Support System (PLSS) on the Advanced Space Suit (AEMU) will carry consumable cooling water maintained at ambient pressure within an array of soft-walled, flexible reservoirs known collectively as the ...
