Fungal diversity differences in the indoor dust microbiome from built environments on earth and in space Open
Human occupied built environments are no longer confined to Earth. In fact, there have been humans living and working in low-Earth orbit on the International Space Station (ISS) since November 2000. With NASA’s Artemis missions and the age…

Characterization and Analysis of Aerosol Particle Retention and Re-aerosolization from Hook-and-Loop Fasteners on the International Space Station Open
The extensive use of hook and loop fasteners aboard the International Space Station warrants careful examination of its contribution to indoor air pollution, as its fine fibers catch aerosol particles then re-aerosolize them upon being pul…

NASA's Aerosol Sampling Experiment Summary Open
In a spacecraft cabin environment, the size range of indoor aerosols is much larger and they persist longer than on Earth because they are not removed by gravitational settling. A previous aerosol experiment in 1991 documented that over 90…
