Preparations for Next Moonwalk Simulations Underway (and Underwater)
Toxic exposure to chemical contaminants can originate from various sources, including environmental system leaks, payload leaks, pyrolysis of polymeric materials, off-gassing of polymeric materials, and more.
The risks of toxic exposure in space are mitigated through preventive measures and monitoring to ensure crew safety and reduce impacts on their health and performance.
Safe, breathable air is crucial for crew health, and efforts are made to minimize toxic exposure events in space missions.
