    Abstract

    To supersede the current state-of-the-art of fire safety in spacecrafts, ESA has commissioned a topical team to define an unprecedented series of demonstration and validation experiments. This initiative aims to move fire safety away from test standards and into a truly scientific selection of both passive and active fire protection strategies. Material selection based on intrinsic material properties and performance will revolutionise traditional passive fire protection strategies that currently rely on pass/fail test methodologies. Active fire protection strategies will be generated by computational models, calibrated to recreate the unfolding emergency scenario using live streams of sensor data. The research roadmap of extensive μg testing programme and model development necessary to achieve these goals is presented
