NOVA-1 Vacuum Pressure Oven

Precision Baking Beyond Atmosphere

The NOVA-1 creates an internally pressurized cooking chamber that replicates Earth-standard baking conditions. Automated pressure regulation compensates for lunar ambient pressure, enabling traditional bread, pastries, and roasted dishes.

Technical Specifications

  • Internal pressure: 1 ATM equivalent
  • Temperature range: 50°C - 300°C
  • Capacity: 45L primary chamber
  • Power consumption: 2.8 kW peak

Mission Use Case

Essential for holiday meals, fresh bread production, and comfort food preparation that requires Maillard reactions and proper crust formation.

FLUX Mag-Lev Skillet System

Precision Cooking in Reduced Gravity

Electromagnetic levitation technology keeps cookware perfectly stable during meal preparation in 1/6th gravity. Induction heating with adaptive power modulation responds to food mass and composition in real-time.

Technical Specifications

  • Levitation clearance: 3-15mm adjustable
  • Induction power: 100W - 3.5kW variable
  • Surface area: 30cm diameter primary
  • Magnetic field strength: 0.8 Tesla max

Mission Use Case

Daily meal preparation including sautéing, stir-frying, and simmering. The levitation system prevents cookware drift during low-gravity cooking.

CYCLE Closed-Loop Dish System

Zero-Waste Sanitation for Isolated Environments

Integrated washing, sanitization, and water reclamation system processes all dishware with 99.2% water recovery. UV-C sterilization combined with enzymatic cleaning eliminates the need for harsh chemical detergents.

Technical Specifications

  • Water recovery rate: 99.2%
  • Cycle time: 8 minutes standard
  • Capacity: 24 place settings
  • Energy per cycle: 0.4 kWh

Mission Use Case

All post-meal sanitation. The closed-loop design is critical for lunar water conservation, recovering and purifying wash water for immediate reuse.

Integrated System

Designed to Work Together

The Kitchen Stack is not six separate appliances — it's a unified culinary system. Shared power management, centralized water reclamation, and integrated controls create a seamless cooking environment optimized for lunar resource constraints.

Unified Power Grid

Smart load balancing prevents power spikes and optimizes energy consumption across all systems.

Central Water Loop

All systems share the CYCLE water reclamation infrastructure, maximizing conservation.

Integrated Controls

Single interface manages all equipment with recipe-driven automation and safety interlocks.
