The Life Support Rack (LSR) is a Technology Demonstrator for Closed Loop Air Revitalisation. LSR captures carbon dioxide from cabin air and recovers 50% of its oxygen for use by the astronauts. LSR operates for a minimum of one year on the International Space Station to demonstrate the robustness of the technology for future Exploration Missions.
