Discover the groundbreaking European Space Agency (ESA) project, Artemiss, aboard the International Space Station (ISS), where innovative microalgae technology is set to revolutionize space travel! This pioneering initiative focuses on producing oxygen using the Arthrospira species, commonly known as spirulina, through photosynthesis in the unique microgravity environment of space. As part of the Microecological Alternative Life Support System (Melissa) program, Artemiss aims to eliminate the need for transporting oxygen from Earth, paving the way for sustainable and regenerative life support systems for future long-duration missions.
Join us as we delve into the details of how this project utilizes a photobioreactor to convert carbon dioxide into breathable oxygen and generate valuable biomass, including proteins. The microalgae will be returned to Earth in April aboard the Dragon spacecraft for further genetic analysis, providing insights into the effects of microgravity and radiation on these organisms.
Learn how Artemiss not only enhances our understanding of space biology but also contributes to sustainable practices for human life beyond Earth. Don't miss this exciting exploration of space innovation and its implications for the future of humanity in space!
