Field tests were performed since 2008 up to 2011 at the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS) in Utah. In two week rotations crews of six members came to the station to perform new missions and established the knowledge, conditions, systems, and equipment necessary to perform successful planetary exploration activities. -
For Immediate Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ASTRONAUTS, EXPERTS, AND SPACE AGENCIES DISCUSS ASTEROIDS, OPPORTUNITIES, AND RISKS ON ASTEROID DAY, 30 JUNE LUXEMBOURG, 22 June 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Asteroid Foundation returns with Asteroid Day LIVE Digital from Luxembourg. This year, the event is a fully digital celebration of asteroid science and exploration. Panel discussions and one-on-one interviews with astronauts and world experts will be broadcast on 30 June 2020. Each year Asteroid Day presents the public with a snap-shot of cutting-edge asteroid research from the largest telescopes on Earth to some of the most ambitious space missions. Topics of discussion this year include the acceleration in the rate of our asteroid discoveries and why it is set to accelerate even faster, the imminent arrival of samples from asteroid Ryugu and Bennu, the exciting preparations for the joint US-Europe mission to binary asteroid Didymos, and much more. Asteroids are the leftover remnants of the birth of the planets in the Solar System, and many are the shattered fragments of these diminutive proto-planets that never made it to maturity. “Asteroid exploration missions tell us about the birth of our own planet and reveal how asteroids can serve astronauts as stepping stones to Mars,” says Tom Jones, PhD, veteran astronaut and planetary scientist, and Asteroid Day Expert Panel member. Each asteroid is an individual with its own story to tell. And that’s what Asteroid Day is all about: bringing those stories to the widest audience possible. “Space and science have been an endless source of inspiration for SES! This is one of the reasons why we and our partners continue to do extraordinary things in space to deliver amazing experiences everywhere on earth,” says Ruy Pinto, Chief Technology Officer at SES. -

Radiation Exposure and Mission Strategies for Interplanetary Manned Mission
Radiation Exposure and Mission Strategies for Interplanetary Manned Mission Radiation Hazard and Space Weather Warning System WP 5000 Final Version: 14 December 2004 Compiled by Claire Foullon1, Andrew Holmes-Siedle2, Norma Bock Crosby1, Daniel Heynderickx1 1 Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy Ringlaan-3-Avenue Circulaire 1180 Brussels, Belgium 2 REM OXFORD Ltd. 64A Acre End St. Eynsham, Oxford OX29 4PD, England INTRODUCTION Radiation protection is a prime issue for space station operations, for extended missions to planets in our solar system (e.g. Mars), or for a return visit to the Moon. The radiation environment encountered by solar system missions mainly consists of the following components: 1. Trapped radiation in the Earth’s Van Allen Belts and in the magnetosphere of Jupiter 2. Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) background radiation 3. Solar Energetic Particle Events – Solar Proton Events (SPEs) Along with the continuous GCR background, SPEs constitute the main hazard for interplanetary missions. Up to now, prediction of SPE events is not possible. Future interplanetary manned missions will need to consider solar activity (e.g. solar flares, coronal mass ejections, …) very carefully due to the obvious detrimental effects of radiation on humans. Very high doses during the transit phase of a mission can result in radiation sickness or even death. This is equally true for extended visits to surfaces of other planets (for example to Mars) and moons lacking a strong magnetic field capable of deflecting solar particles. The risk of developing cancer several years after a mission is somewhat more difficult to quantify, but must also be considered in mission planning. -
