T0008-P Indexing Media Filtration System for Long Duration Space Missions

Dust mitigation techniques appropriate for space environments must be developed in order to provide safe and sustainable breathable air aboard crewed space vehicles
and extraterrestrial or planetary outposts. Acknowledging that the filtering of airborne particles under environmental constraints and conditions poses unique challenges, this study aims to test the performance of a filtration system. The resulting flight data will be used to assess the performance of the hardware in low-g environments; in which, deficiencies in performance or operation will be identified and corrected for future flights.
