Abstract
Advanced life support systems for manned long-duration space missions include four major subsystems: crew, biomass production, food processing and nutrition, and waste processing and resource recovery. Crew time requirements are a concern, especially in the potentially labor intensive operation of the biomass production subsystem. Different types of automation (including mechanization and robotics) are needed in order to reduce crew time. Automation is an important aspect of advanced biomass production systems within controlled environment life support systems. A biomass production subsystem model was developed to investigate the effects of different crop and automation scenarios on crew time requirements.
