Dituri J, Juergensen K, Decker M. Handbook of Life Support Systems for Spacecraft and Extraterrestrial Habitats (Springer). 2020:1-29. doi:10.1007/978-3-319-09575-2_217-1

In plain language

What this study found

A space suit and a diving rig solve the same problem: keep a person alive inside a sealed volume, in an environment that will kill them if it fails. This chapter carries life-support control and biometric monitoring approaches out of undersea systems and into spacecraft and extraterrestrial habitat design.
