The Vision for Space Exploration
NASA is charting a bold new course into the cosmos, a journey that will take humans back to the Moon, and eventually to Mars and beyond. The Vision for Space Exploration calls for a "building block" strategy of human and robotic missions to achieve new exploration goals.

Biomass Production Description
Production of Fresh Food Supplements for Transit
Production of Fresh Food Supplements for Planetary Surface
provide fresh crop foods for 10% of crew’s diet. The unit would also provide 20% of the crew’s O2 needs and 20% of the CO2 removal.
Bioregenerative Life Support
Expanded or multiple CPS units to provide 25% of the diet and 50% of atmospheric regeneration.
