Keeping Astronauts Alive - Everything You Need To Know About Life Support In Space

Scott Manley is someone who fell into YouTube because he felt a deep compelling need to teach people orbital mechanics and rocket science so they could play Kerbal Space Program, now, years later the gaming videos are less important and the pure science is the main thrust. My degrees are all in Physics and Astronomy, so much of the rocket science and engineering I've learned is self taught, always learning, always teaching. I used to do this as a hobby, along with my day job in software development, but that recently came to an end and I'm really appreciating everyone who has chosen to support my work through Patreon.

Keeping people alive in space has been a cornerstone of spaceflight technology since before humans even went to space. Systems need to provide for all the biological needs and remove all the byproducts from life processes. Recycling is important to minimize the amount of consumables required on long duration flights. The international space station has moved away from filters, scrubbers and solid fuel oxygen generators to racks of equipment which keep the air fresh and breathable.
