| ID No : | 117 Edit | Title: | Design of Extended Range EVA PLSS Systems: Lessons from Terrestrial Exploration Missions |
| Summary / Review : |
PLSS is Portable Life Support Systems. In the author's words: "... re-engineering EVA (Space suit) systems to achieve greater range and reliability at dramatically reduced cost. This paper discusses alternative architectures for fully closed cycle [PLSS] that have been built and tested over the last decade for use in hazardous subaquatic environments... The culmination of these designs was successfully used to explore a 600 meter long underwater tunnel which began at a depth of 1353 meters vertically beneath the surface of the earth in southern Mexico. Lessons relating to survival and range enhancement on orbital and lunar EVA missions are presented." - MP
