THE ANCIENT TECHNOLOGY ENTERS THE SPACE AGE
The ancients, of course, had no idea how it worked – that when positively charged silver ions dissolve into water or other substances, they bond with and disrupt the negatively charged cell membranes of bacteria and other microorganisms before entering them and wreaking general havoc. But as understanding has improved, so has technology for delivering the ions.
In the 1960s, Johnson, then known as the Manned Spacecraft Center, commissioned an electrolytic silver ion generator to purify water on the Apollo missions. The following decade, in the run-up to the space shuttle missions, the center sponsored a more advanced prototype.
SPACE WATER CONSERVATION
The more difficult a problem is for NASA, the more solutions it eventually produces for the rest of us. Few challenges are more pressing for the space agency than the need for clean water. Water is heavy – much heavier than the liquid hydrogen and oxygen NASA uses for rocket fuel – and every pound launched into space costs thousands of dollars. So on the space station, nothing is wasted – sweat, urine, and even breath moisture are collected, purified, and recycled as drinking water. But despite its origins, the water astronauts drink is cleaner than what’s available to most people on Earth.

NASA’S NEEDS TO CONSERVE WATERING SPACE HAS LONG SUPPORTED TERRESTRIAL WATER-PURIFICATION TECHNIQUES
To achieve this, NASA has pushed the cutting edge of water purification since the agency’s early years. And most of these innovations have found plenty of use here on the ground, too, in homes and water bottles, in industrial settings, and in remote locations where safe drinking water is scarce. As the worldwide demand for fresh water grows, this technology becomes more essential every day, as it ensures that people have enough safe water to drink, treats polluted water, and eases the demand on natural aquifers.

Silvershield has been used to preserve and purify food and beverages since ancient times, but scientists are still researching the best and safest ways to deploy the technique.
