Life-support mass ledger

This site is a read-only trail of toy cabin / habitat mass books. Each tick, the ledger asks one question: do the oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water books close — or do we alarm?

What the books are

Think of three jars of mass the crew cares about:

Every second the plant claims flows (crew use, scrubber, oxygen supply, condensate, waste recovery). The ledger checks whether the observed change in stores matches what those claimed flows would produce. If the leftover (residual) is bigger than a tiny tolerance (epsilon = 1e-6 kg), status flips to alarm and a failure ticket (receipt) is minted.

Close or alarm

This is a toy corpus for bot-native proofs. Crew metabolic O₂/CO₂/H₂O rates cite NASA BVAD Rev2 (Table 3-31). Plant setpoints are assumptions. Not NASA-validated and not flight-certified.

How to read a ticket

  1. Title — plain-English what broke.
  2. Fault — machine id (e.g. scrubber_and_leak).
  3. Time — tick t when the alarm first fired (faults inject at t=30 in a 60-tick run).
  4. Species yelled — which mass books broke tolerance (often a gas plus total).
  5. JSON — open the receipt; that file is authoritative. The .md is only a human mirror.

Ticket wall

All failure receipts from Day-1 through Day-4. JSON remains source of truth.

Scrubber turned off

The CO₂ scrubber stopped, but the books still assumed it was running. Carbon dioxide stopped balancing.

Cabin air leak

Oxygen left the cabin through a leak the books did not know about. Oxygen and total mass yelled.

Power cut

Power dropped, plants went dark, and the books still claimed healthy setpoints. The cabin air books failed to close.

Waste-water recovery off

The waste-water recovery plant stopped, but the books still credited clean water back into the tank.

Waste-water leak

Waste water left through a leak the books did not model. The water books failed to close.

Oxygen buffer empty

The oxygen buffer ran dry. Books still claimed crew oxygen supply the plant could not deliver.

Condensate return failed

Humidity condensate stopped returning to the water tank, but the books still claimed that credit.

Scrubber off and cabin leak (dual)

Two faults at once: scrubber offline and a cabin leak. Oxygen and carbon dioxide both screamed, plus total.
