  3. 1. Introduction: CASS • E Background 1. Detection of stratospheric microorganisms: To study life in extreme environments. • Panspermia? • 2. Previous experiments flown to detect microbes in Stratosphere: Levels of organisms expected in • stratosphere are very low. Human mouth contains 10 13 bacterial cells. • How can we be confident any microbes. • detected are stratospheric? 2 of 22

  4. 1. Introduction: CASS • E Experimental Idea Planetary Protection and Contamination Control (PP&CC): 1.How do you clean/sterilise your hardware? • Dry Heat Microbial Reduction (DHMR) 2.How do you keep it clean once it has been sterilised? • Biobarriers 3.How do you measure how clean it is? • Swabbing and culturing • Other microbiological assays e.g. ATP detection • Fluorescent beads as a proxy of contamination 3 of 22

  5. 1. Introduction: CASS • E Aims & Objectives 1. To design, build and fly an experiment that is capable of collecting microorganisms in Earth’s Stratosphere. 2. To ensure that microorganisms collected are truly stratospheric rather than contamination introduced during payload assembly, integration, ground handling, launch, flight and recovery. 3. To improve understanding of PP&CC implementation in life detection experiments for stratospheric and broader Astrobiology missions. 4 of 22

Dr Pillinger, Open University: PP&CC support and environmental test facilities. 5. Prof Sims, University of Leicester: Environmental tests facilities, systems design support. 6 of 22

  8. CASS • E 3. The Experiment: Overview • Design based on similar systems flown on stratospheric balloons. • Fluorescent beads to be sprayed as proxy for contamination. 7 of 22

  9. CASS • E 3. The Experiment: Process Flow Pre-Launch Flight Post flight 1. Design, assembly 1. Biobarrier opens in 1. Shipping to and testing stratosphere Cranfield 2. Cleaning and 2. Pump draws air 2. Recovery of filters sterilisation* through filter in cleanroom collecting bacteria environment 3. Shipping to launch site 3. Valve closes to seal 3. Assessment of system during contamination *With continuous landing and present on filters measurement of recovery contamination throughout process 8 of 22

  10. CASS • E 3. The Experiment: Results 1. Delivery of complete experiment. 2. Improved understanding of PP&CC requirements for Stratospheric balloon missions. 3. Demonstrated PP&CC protocols. 4. Information about sources of contamination. 5. Microorganisms? 9 of 22

  11. CASS • E 4. The Design: Status CAD drawings. • Preliminary selection of components. • Initial budgets. • 10 of 22

  14. CASS • E 4. The Design: Mechanical The dimensions are estimated to be 350 x 320 x • 200mm. Need access to exterior to draw air in. • Shock absorbers • 13 of 22

  15. CASS • E 4. The Design: The Bio-barrier 2 mini bio-barriers made of Tedlar and Mylar over • the tubing exposed to outside air. Mechanism to open: • Hot wire and spring loaded mechanism (JPL). • 14 of 22

  17. CASS • E 5. Identified Risks: 1. Many risks negated by: • Redundancy. • Flight experience (our own CGN Stratospheric balloon experiment and BEXUS’ CENSUS ’08-‘09). 2. Electronic Risks: • Microprocessor fails, nothing starts up. • Pressure sensor that dictates when bio-barrier opens and pumps turn on fails (manual override from ground). 3. Power Risks: • Batteries power pumps, bio-barrier and valves hence need to perform extensive testing to avoid failure. 16 of 21

  18. CASS • E 5. Identified Risks: 4. Bio-barrier (single point failure): • Bio-barrier loses integrity prior to reaching desired altitude. • Bio-barrier fails to open (single point failure). • Designs to be based on bio-barriers developed at JPL 1 , use of secondary opening mechanism. 5. Contamination due to structural damage during landing and recovery: • Very unlikely. 1) Salinas et al, IEEEAC paper # 1216, 2006 17 of 22

  19. 6. Testing: CASS • E 1. Structural: • Vibration (system integrity, especially bio-barrier). • Testing of shock absorbers. • Testing of the bio-barrier opening mechanism. 2. Thermal: • Foil heaters (do they maintain working conditions?) 3. Electronics (low pressure & low temperature conditions): • Batteries, pumps, valves, board and sensors. 4. Software: • Control of valves and bio-barrier as well as sensors. 18 of 22
