PERSEO: PErsonal Radiation Shielding for intErplanetary missiOns

The PERSEO project (PErsonal Radiation Shielding for intErplaetary missiOns) aimed at
studying a wearable innovative radiation protection system to mitigate the effects of
Solar Particle Events (SPE) on astronauts. SPE can be considered as related mainly to
deterministic effects of the cosmic radiation, with hazards to man arising for physical
doses above 2 Gy, when symptoms of the hematopoietic syndrome appear.

Autonomous Planetary Payload Survival Support System (APPS)

The objective of the APPS study has been to investigate the feasibility, architectural and system design, and potential performance of a non-nuclear system whose single goal is to provide survival and servicing support to a planetary payload element, in order to ensure its operations despite the absence of sunlight for extended periods. The principle aim is to advance concepts and overall approaches to meet this goal, and to provide a framework for the future development of key technologies.

Studying panoramic cameras for lunar exploration (LCAM)

Beginning in June 2012, an MSSL-led team have performed a study of the requirements and design of a Lunar Surface Camera Package for Exploration L- CAM for the ESA Lunar Lander. However, the Lunar Lander program was terminated by the ESA Ministerial Council in November 2012. As a result, with four of the six TNs requested in the SoW completed, ESA instructed MSSL to concentrate work on the L-CAM thermal model. The following final report is therefore composed of TNs 1- 4 and the Thermal Report.

Dusty Plasma Environments: Near-Surface Characterization and Modelling

The main goals of the DPEM project was [RD1] "to set the foundations for the development of a comprehensive suite of near surface dusty plasma environment models applicable in particular (but not only) to airless bodies of interest for future exploration missions such as asteroids, the Moon, Phobos and Deimos, etc … These models shall allow the definition of charged dust environment specifications to assess the effects of dusty plasmas on near surface or surface exploration units (spacecraft, payload, lander, astronaut) in a surface-spacecraft-dust environment system."
