Question

In what way does the International Space Station (ISS) mimic the conditions of life on Earth? What ISS technologies create the conditions on Earth and what differences continue to exist?

Answer 1

Answer:

It has an atmosphere humans can breath in, a temperature that humans can live in constantly and has light dark cycles, although they are 90 mins that separate the dark from light.    

The technologies are reuse of all water through reverse osmosis purification.  Carbon Dioxide scrubbing by capturing CO2 using a sponge-like mineral called a zeolite, which has tiny pores to lock in a CO2 molecule. On the space station, the zeolites empty their CO2 when exposed to the vacuum of space.  

The differences that continue to exist are micro gravity, fast dark/light cycle and a oxygen rich atmosphere.
