DOSIMETERS FOR HUMAN SPACEFLIGHT

For crewed space missions, accurate radiation detection is crucial. At ASRO, we specialize in developing reliable, state-of-the-art dosimeters, capable of mapping the radiation environment during spaceflight.

Solution

Our flagship project includes the ESA Active Dosimeters (EADs). Developed by ASRO and DLR, these radiation sensors have already made their way to the International Space Station and Moon aboard the Artemis 1 mission. We’re continually advancing our technology, with the next generation of EADs currently under development for the Lunar Gateway.

Beyond space applications, our dosimeters are also versatile tools suitable for various environments, such as high-altitude atmospheric missions or radiation-sensitive industrial settings.

Lunar Gateway / IDA & ERSA

ASRO is on track to deliver EADs to the European Radiation Sensors Array (ERSA) and Internal Dosimeter Array (IDA) for the upcoming Lunar Gateway space station, in partnership with DLR.

Dosimeters for human spaceflight

Artemis 1 / EAD

ASRO, alongside DLR, developed and delivered five EADs for the Artemis 1 mission. These EADs were positioned inside the Orion crew capsule, where they successfully measured the radiation environment during the 25.5-day lunar flight.

International Space Station / EuCPAD

 In the European Crew Personal Active Dosimeter (EuCPAD) project, ASRO contributed to the system design of the electronics, including a graphic interface that utilizes a touch screen. This radiation monitoring, dosimetry, and data storage system served astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
