This white paper introduces the AeroBubble Life Support System (ABLS), a novel concept for spacecraft environmental control. ABLS proposes the use of self-contained, gas-permeable membranes to facilitate oxygen storage, CO₂ absorption, and water recycling, reducing reliance on traditional mechanical-heavy life support systems. The system has been modeled using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, demonstrating its potential efficiency for long-duration space missions. This report provides a conceptual framework for assessing ABLS and invites further research into its feasibility for aerospace applications. While the principles of gas exchange, water recovery, and passive fluid dynamics are well-grounded in established science, ABLS remains a theoretical concept requiring experimental validation. Key considerations include material durability in a space environment, long-term gas diffusion efficiency, and scalability for varying crew sizes. This study does not present ABLS as a fully developed solution but as an innovative hypothesis for exploration. The objective is to encourage further testing and discussion within the scientific and engineering communities to assess its viability as a next-generation life support alternative.

Addendum Description:This addendum formally integrates the Unified Mathematical Taxonomy (UMT) into the conceptual framework of the AeroBubble Life Support System (ABLS), reinforcing its structural plausibility and advancing it beyond conceptual speculation. By applying the UMT pillars, including projection logic, entropy convergence, and canonical equilibrium, the addendum provides new theoretical support for the membrane-based recycling system at the core of ABLS. This update positions the system within a deterministic, subspace-coherent model of environmental exchange, clarifying its viability for long-duration and low-mass aerospace missions.
