This project is an extraordinary opportunity to participate in the field of human spaceflight research and development, specifically in the development of analogue spacesuit for space analogue missions.

One of the most dangerous parts of manned space exploration are extravehicular activities (EVAs). In between years 1965-2019, total amount of 429 EVAs were performed. 49 of them encountered unexpected problems, some were related to overheating of the astronaut. In future exploration of the Moon and beyond, the time and physical activity of EVAs will increase. This further emphasize the need for effective and reliable countermeasure for overheating risk.

In this project you will work with international experts from ICEE Space on development and testing of a liquid cooling system. You will have to communicate in English with them. Then, you will test usability of the cooling system in laboratory and in the field. You will use thermocamera and physiological measures to evaluate effectivness of the solution. After experiment, you will write the report. I'll be your czech-speaking supervisor, helping you with the theory, practical aspects of experiment design, field testing, and writing.
