Abstract:
Long-term experiments with animals in space require a life-support system that provides optimal conditions of life at lowest energy demand. Experimental studies of different physicochemical and biological systems are compared. While such experiments are limited by energy requirements, it is possible to choose a certain system by comparing the exact energy balances of the different ecological systems.
