Space Life Support

Space Life Support is a life support system designed to sustain human life in space environments by providing essential resources such as air, water, and food, while managing waste and maintaining habitable conditions, distinguishing it from terrestrial life support systems through its adaptation to microgravity, radiation, and closed-loop resource recycling requirements.
