Electric propulsion is of interest for manned interplanetary missions, primarily because it offers the potential of delivering and returning relatively large payload fractions from the planets. This can be achieved because of the high specific impulse obtainable when the propellant is accelerated by electrical means rather than thermally, as in chemical and nuclear rockets.
This document is intended to provide a description of the physiological effects that determine the environmental limits required in spacecraft. The existing limits for operational environments are described in terms of acceptable physiological changes. Tolerance limits are discussed for exposures to environmental factors during unusual or contingency situations. Where environmental limits may be required but do not presently exist or where additional research is required to refine existing limits, these research needs are specified.
Energetic ion data, close to solar wind sector boundaries (the heliospheric current sheet), are examined for the presence of accelerated ions, which may be the signature of magnetic reconnection.
We have developed a comprehensive system model for hydroxide exchange membrane fuel cell (HEMFC)-based light-duty vehicles which allows us to determine the material and system developments needed to enable affordable HEMFC-based cars for the mass market.
