Abstract
This paper will discuss concepts of human safety for spacecraft design and operation and how those concepts might be applied for deep space exploration at the moon and beyond. After discussing the history of the human rating of spacecraft and introducing a new definition of human safe, this paper will examine deep space Environmental Control and Life Support Systems (ECLSS) in this context and discuss the changes from a traditional human rating that would be introduced by the human safe approach.
