How to recreate Earth's life-sustaining systems in the void of space
In short: To survive long-term space travel and life on other planets, we must replicate the environmental support systems that make Earth habitable. This video examines the technologies used on the International Space Station to sustain life.
As humans move beyond Earth, the challenge shifts from mere travel to long-term survival. This requires engineering complex systems that mimic the natural processes of our home planet.
By studying the technologies currently operating on the International Space Station, scientists can better understand the essential ingredients required to maintain life in the harsh environment of space.
