Appendix G
Mapping of Bioastronautics Roadmap Risks to Relevant Projects of the Exploration Technology Development Program
TABLE G.1 Mapping Between Bioastronautics Roadmap Risks and Relevant ETDP Projects
Risk #33: Monitor External Environment, Lack of remedial action poses of crew health risk for chemical composition of dust, particulate size
Risk of Adverse Health Affects from Lunar Dust Exposure. It is clear that prolonged exposure to rock dust is harmful, but it is not clear if exposure to regolith dust is more or less harmful than terrestrial rock dust. Research into this area may determine if exposure limits need to be changed, and/or if additional medical treatment capability is required. (1,2)
Risk #37: Provide Space Suit and portable life support systems
“Lunar and Mars and dust contamination leading to suit failure”
Risk #26: Mismatch Between Crew Cognitive Capabilities and Task Demands
Risk of Impaired Ability to Maintain Control of Vehicles and Other Complex Systems: It has been shown that long duration spaceflight alters sensimotor functions which manifests as changes in locomotion, gaze control, dynamic visual acuity, and perception. (1,2)
Risk #45: Poorly Integrated Ground, Crew, and Automation Functions
Risk #26: Mismatch Between Crew Cognitive Capabilities and Task Demands
Risk of Impaired Ability to Maintain Control of Vehicles and Other Complex Systems: It has been shown that long duration spaceflight alters sensimotor functions which manifests as changes in locomotion, gaze control, dynamic visual acuity, and perception. (1,2)
Risk #26: Mismatch Between Crew Cognitive Capabilities and Task Demands
Risk of Impaired Ability to Maintain Control of Vehicles and Other Complex Systems: It has been shown that long duration spaceflight alters sensimotor functions which manifests as changes in locomotion, gaze control, dynamic visual acuity, and perception.
Below are the first 10 and last 10 pages of uncorrected machine-read text (when available) of this chapter, followed by the top 30 algorithmically extracted key phrases from the chapter as a whole. Intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text on the opening pages of each chapter.
Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.
Do not use for reproduction, copying, pasting, or reading; exclusively for search engines.

17 Extravehicular Activity Technologies
Risk #26: Mismatch Between Crew Cognitive Capabilities and Task Demands
HHC Risk of Compromised EVA [Extravehicular Activity] Performance and crew Health Due to Inadequate EVA Suit Systems: Improperly designed EVA suits can result in the inability of the crew to perform as expected, and can cause mechanical and decompression injury. Suit developers must fully understand the impact of the suit design on crew performance and health to ensure properly designed mobility, pressures, nutrition, life support, etc. (1,2)
Risk #1: Accelerated Bone Loss and Fracture Risk
Risk of Adverse Health Affects from Lunar Dust Exposure: It is clear that prolonged exposure to rock dust is harmful, but it is not clear if exposure to regolith dust is more or less harmful than terrestrial rock dust. Research into this area may determine if exposure limits need to be changed, and/or if additional medical treatment capability is required.
Risk #2: Impaired Fracture Healing
Risk #3: Injury to Joints and Intervertebral Structures
Risk #6: Diminished Cardiac and Vascular Function
Risk #11: Reduced Muscle Mass, Strength, and Endurance
Risk #12: Increased Susceptibility to Muscle Damage
Risk #30: Chronic and Degenerative Tissue Risks (due to Radiation Exposure)
Risk #31: Acute Radiation Risks
Risk #37: Provide Space Suits and Portable Life Support Systems

1. HRP-47052, Revision A. The Human Research Program [HRP] Requirements Document, Human Research Program, which was baselined in July, 2007, established the flow down of requirements from the Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD) and the Office of Chief Health Medical Officer (OCHMO) to the HRP Program Elements to ensure delivery of countermeasures and technologies that satisfy ESMD’s and OCHMO’s exploration mission requirements.
2. RMAT reviews medical risks in terms of probability, impact and proposals for mitigating the risks, and reviews each risk in terms of multiple mission architectures (short duration Earth orbital, ISS [International Space Station] 6 month, ISS 12 month, short duration Lunar sortie, long duration Lunar Mission and Mars Mission). The results are embodied in HRP-47052.
