Exploration Testing for the Moon on the International Space Station: the SERFE Project

As NASA embraces commercial partnerships to optimize spacesuit technology as part of the Artemis program, the Spacesuit Evaporation Rejection Flight Experiment (SERFE) payload continues to be tested on the space station. SERFE is designed to evaluate and demonstrate active thermal control technology in the microgravity environment of the International Space Station. At NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, engineers will perform the exact same test on the ground on an identical SERFE unit to evaluate the design of the government prototype.
