German Expertise in Bioregenerative Life Support Systems
with Aquatic Organisms
 The C.E.B.A.S / Aquahab Project (1986-2003)
3 shuttle flights of the CEBAS Minimodule:
STS-89, STS-90 (1998); STS-107 (2003)
biol. objects: Water plants, fish, snails
Research on fish (Xiphophorus): - morphology
- physiology
development
 The Aquacells/Omegahab Project (1998-2013)
4 flights on russ. satellites M1, M2, M3, BION M1
Research: - fish (morph. inner ear, behavior)
- microalga Euglena (gravitaxis)
- closed loop gas cycle (O2/CO
O2 2)

Bioregenerative Life Support Research
in the German Life Sciences Program
- Summary and Outlook  Good expertise with Aquatic Systems (science and
industry) built up over the last decades
 ModuLES: Science-based modular concept for smallscale Bioregenerative Life Support Research
 :envihab facility at DLR Cologne to play a significant
role for ground-based simulation studies and
demonstrators
 Despite big interest in BLS, only a few research
teams in Germany – cooperations welcome !
