'SPACE BEAUTY BOOK B' is a comprehensive guidebook for practical use and R&D that systematically organizes information necessary for research and development and market entry in the new domain of 'Space x Beauty,' based on the actual environment of the International Space Station (ISS).
While 'SPACE BEAUTY BOOK A' is the 'Future Edition' that depicts the possibilities of future society and industries, this book, 'B,' is positioned as the 'Implementation Edition' to specifically understand 'what can actually be done' and 'where the challenges lie' by organizing the living environment, physical changes, R&D conditions, and institutional constraints in space.
The space industry has been expanding at a much faster pace than initially predicted in recent years. With the privatization of manned space activities and the advancement of space travel, fields such as 'life,' 'health,' and 'beauty' are rapidly gaining importance. However, information on life and beauty in space is scattered across multiple institutions, papers, and technical documents, making it difficult to grasp systematically.
To address this issue of fragmented information, this book reconstructs public information and papers from NASA, ESA, and JAXA, systematically organizing beauty and life challenges in the space environment from a practical perspective.
Furthermore, by organizing detailed conditions related to ISS environmental control and life support systems (ECLSS), and basic living infrastructure such as air, water, temperature/humidity, and microbial control, the book clarifies the prerequisites necessary for product development and service design in space.
In addition, this book specifically explains practical themes such as:
* The impact of the space environment on the human body (skin, hair, body fluids, mental health)
* Living environment on the ISS (temperature, humidity, air circulation, water resource constraints)
* Basic structure and implementation conditions of research and development/experiments in space
* Eligibility requirements for cosmetics and beauty products usable in space
* Space-specific constraints such as transportation, storage, and safety standards
* Current challenges and future directions for research and development
The book also organizes examples of experiments conducted in space to date and how companies have utilized the space environment to achieve results. Based on currently available experimental facilities and environments, it specifically examines and presents what kind of research and development can be conducted by beauty and life-related companies from a beauty perspective.
Impact on Astronauts' Bodies
Research Cases in Space
This book is not intended to provide general knowledge about space, but rather is designed as a 'resource that organizes fundamental information for conducting research, development, and business considerations based on the space environment.'
Therefore, it is particularly recommended for:
* R&D personnel at cosmetic and beauty manufacturers
* New business/business development managers
* Companies considering entry into space-related businesses
* Life science/space researchers at universities and research institutions
* Those interested in developing products and services utilizing the space environment
Furthermore, this book is useful for understanding what needs and challenges life and beauty-related companies have regarding space, and how the space environment can be utilized. It also provides a perspective for space businesses to capture new customer and market possibilities.
Space is not a 'distant future market' but has already begun to function as a place for research, development, and verification.
Within this context, the beauty and life domain is still an undeveloped area that has not yet been systematized, presenting great potential but also many challenges.
This book provides a foundation for considering the next steps by giving an overview and accurately grasping the current status and challenges.
