Abstract in brief

  • Bioregenerative Life Support Systems (BLSS) are essential for long-term space missions as they recycle oxygen, water, and food, reducing dependency on Earth supplies and preventing pollution on extraterrestrial bodies.
  • Since the 1960s, various countries like the USSR/Russia, USA, Europe, Japan, and China have made significant progress in developing BLSS, including theories, plant and microorganism systems, and long-term operation experiments, with China's Lunar Palace 365 achieving 98% material closure over a year.
  • Future research will focus on lunar experiments and small-scale uncrewed ecosystems to understand space environmental impacts on BLSS, aiming to refine system design and support crewed deep space exploration.]
