Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility
The Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility and its
Space and Advanced Life Support Agriculture program are an essential part of
Canada's contributions to plant research and development for space and closed
environment related activities. The prospect of a higher priority for advanced
life support research objectives in the Canadian
Space Agency's Long Term Space Plan and the strong support of
NASA's
Advanced Life Support (ALS) community provide a clear incentive and opportunity
to promote our capabilities in this area. In addition, our ongoing contract
with the European Space Agency's
MELiSSA Project promises to expand to include a broader scope of objectives
in life support studies.
