“…d a can readily obtained for this relation if the relevant particle properties and shape factor are known. Lunar particles are for the most part irregular particles having an average specific gravity of 3 g/cm 3 , i.e ρ P /ρ 0 ≈ 3. In this case the aerodynamic diameter may over-predict the actual size of the particle.…”

“…Recent data by Urban et al 2 indicating that the particulate environment on the ISS is exceptionally clean (see Perry 3 for cleanliness requirements on the ISS) has attested to the high performance of the filtration system. In part, this could be attributed to the use of HEPA filters and the lack of any specific sources of significant particulate generation.…”

Lunar dust effects can have a significant impact on the performance and maintenance of future exploration life support systems. Filtration systems will be challenged by the additional loading from lunar dust, and mitigation technology and strategies have to be adapted to protect sensitive equipment. An initial characterization of lunar dust and simulants was undertaken. The data emphasize the irregular morphology of the dust particles and the frequency dependence of lunar dust layer detachment from shaken surfaces.
