Summary
The project DEAR of the European Space Agency, in cooperation with the ÖWF and ACP,
with a focus on the effect of Regolith dust on optics, mechanisms and astronautic components.
Thisproject was originated due to the need for an effective Lunar dust cleaning method.
The special chemical and physical properties from lunar dust are responsible for a lot of different difficulties
during Lunar Expeditions regarding health and technical issues.
Dust can make breathing for Astronauts difficult and may trigger chronic respiratory problems,
and has also a considerable negative impact on technical items. Therefore, to remove lunar dust from equipment,
different cleaning methods are being tested including blast cleaning with supercritical CO2 jets,
which will be tested on textile patches
brought back from Analogue Astronauts after the mission.
