  2. Consumables Life Support Systems Power In-Situ Schedule Medical Work in Progress References Overview

  3. Consumables – HAB1 • Nominal amount for Earth to Mars transit • After mission abort – hygiene water reduced to 10 kg/person/day • Reduces weight by 3500 kg while maintaining crew health

  4. Consumables - ERV • Accounts for nominal consumables for entire 230 days • An extra 99.2 kg and .85 m^3 of food needs to be added when CTV docks with ERV for Mars to Earth transit

  5. Consumables - CTV • The Consumables for the CTV include enough food, water, and oxygen for 7 days with no recycling capabilities

  6. Life Support2 • Life Support Systems are composed of physical-chemical processes • Both the HAB and ERV incorporate the same life support systems and specifications

  7. Total Mass/Volumes3 • HAB – 11450.8 kg / 32.68 m^3 • ERV – 6570.5 kg / 14.41 m^3 • CTV – 321.8 kg / .40 m^3

  8. Power4 • Due to the recycling process of the consumables, these power constraints are critical to the survivability of the crew

  9. In - Situ • The In–Situ production plant needs to have the capability to produce 3476 kg of water and 32 kg of oxygen • These consumables account for the stay on the planet not brought due to the lower amount of hygiene water given to the crew for the free-return

  10. Schedule • 24.5 hour day • This would be a very flexible schedule but average day on the job • 2.5 hours of com gives 1.5 of business and 1 of personal

  11. Mainly focused on trauma, injury, or illness Not focused on disease Examples First Aid (bandages, etc) Burn treatments, bone/muscle injuries Pain medications, common illness medications Equipment Medical

  12. Work in Progress • Sizing incorporated with layouts • Thermal Control around Venus • Medical equipment list • Report
