In order to identify all the constraints from both engineering and human sides, a meticulous system engineering approach has to be followed and the human sciences, including incorporation of ideas from artists, ergonomists and psychologists, have to be integrated in the very early stages of the mission design.

  • Deployable Modular Frame for Inflatable Space Habitats
    70th International Astronautical Congress (IAC), Washington D.C., United States, 21-25 October 2019. Copyright ©2019 by the International Astronautical Federation (IAF). All rights reserved. IAC-19,B3,8-GTS.2,4,x48931 DMF: Deployable Modular Frame for Inflatable Space Habitats Vittorio Netti1, * 1University of Houston, [email protected] *Corresponding author Abstract Inflatable Space Modules for space exploration are now a reality. In 2016, Bigelow Aerospace tested the first inflatable module Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) on the International Space Station (ISS), achieving success. This technology has higher volume limits than other launchers, substantially changing the previous concepts of construction and life in space. Nevertheless, inflatable modules technology lacks a reliable and functional platform to efficiently use all this space. Due to its limited dimension, the International Standard Payload Rack (ISPR), currently used on ISS, is not suitable for this purpose. The project aims at developing a new standard for payload rack in the inflatable space modules: the Deployable Modular Frame (DMF). The DMF expands itself radially from the center of the module, starting from four structural pylons. It creates a solid infrastructure allowing for the configuration of a variety of spaces, including storage space, laboratories, workstations and living quarters. The DMF consists of two main parts: the Deployable Frame (DF) and the Modular Rack (MR). Once the frame is deployed, it provides four linear slots suitable to install the modular racks. The rack is the basic element that allows for the storage of equipment inside the frame. Once they are installed, the racks can slide on the frame’s rails, dynamically changing the space inside the module.

I was lucky enough to be surrounded by a great team who helped me achieve my work. First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Dimitri Mavris, my advisor. I am very grateful for the opportunity you gave me to join ASDL. You provided me with an inspiring environment to grow and develop my skills, regularly offering me guidance for more than a year now. The projects I worked on were very diverse and helped me explore various areas to better define my path to the future. I would also like to thank my committee members, Dr. Michael Balchanos and Dr. Olivia Pinon-Fischer. Dr. Balchanos, you helped me define my topic and you were constantly present throughout the process. You provided me with the bigger picture, hoping to de- velop a larger-scale project for space habitats design.

  • Developing a Habitat for Long Duration, Deep Space Missions
    GLEX-2012.05.3.8x12222 DEVELOPING A HABITAT FOR LONG DURATION, DEEP SPACE MISSIONS Michelle A. Rucker NASA Johnson Space Center, USA, [email protected] Shelby Thompson, Ph.D. Lockheed Martin/Johnson Space Center, USA, [email protected] One possible next leap in human space exploration for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is a mission to a near Earth asteroid (NEA). In order to achieve such an ambitious goal, a space habitat will need to accommodate a crew of four for the 380-day round trip. The Human Spaceflight Architecture Team (HAT) developed a conceptual design for such a habitat. The team identified activities that would be performed inside a long-duration, deep space habitat, and the capabilities needed to support such a mission. A list of seven functional activities/capabilities was developed: individual and group crew care, spacecraft and mission operations, subsystem equipment, logistics and resupply, and contingency operations. The volume for each activity was determined using NASA STD-3001 and the companion Human Integration Design Handbook (HIDH). Although, the sum of these volumes produced an over-sized spacecraft, the team evaluated activity frequency and duration to identify functions that could share a common volume without conflict, reducing the total volume by 24%. After adding 10% for growth, the resulting functional pressurized volume was calculated to be a minimum of 268 m3 (9,464 ft3) distributed over the functions. The work was validated through comparison to Mir, Skylab, the International Space Station (ISS), Bigelow Aerospace’s proposed habitat module, and NASA’s Trans-Hab concept.
