Abstract

The moisture in the spaceships and satellites is one big problem disturbing the normal functioning of number of devices and worsening crew’s conditions of life. Lyophilized products are extremely hygroscopic. Foods for astronauts are conserved through lyophilization. That means, lyophilized products, including and lyophilized food products, in principle could be used to eliminate the excess of water.
