Abstract The presence of viable particles in materials, devices, people, surfaces, liquids, gases, or air is referred to as bio-contamination. Mold can grow anywhere there is enough moisture or a water problem. Most molds emit musty odors, which are the first indication of a problem. Mold can manifest itself as slightly fuzzy, discolored or slimy patches that expand in size. Mold growth can be significant in hermetically sealed and environmentally controlled environments. The enclosed habitats are well-exemplified by Analog Astronaut Mission Habitats (AAMH). A bio-contamination test was conducted at the AAMH in Poland from November 1 to 10, 2023. Mold was discovered growing in a bio-contamination experiment mixture of wheat flour, tomato powder and sugar. AAMHs should develop a bio-contamination control strategy as well as an internal system to protect the crew and citizens from diseases that the crew may transmit.
