Effective and reliable water management and recovery systems will be required to support human missions beyond the low Earth orbit (LEO) of the International Space Station (ISS). Lunar and Mars surface missions will introduce new challenges to managing water and associated waste streams from mobile crew members who are transiting between up to six living shelters in extreme environmental conditions under a range of gravity conditions. A review of baseline assumptions for the human activities and associated air and water cycles in and between transit vehicle, orbiting station, lander-ascent vehicle, surface habitat, pressurized rover, and suits is conducted. The paper updates ersatz formulations and water flow rates for the main liquid water waste streams of urine, humidity condensate, hygiene, and laundry. Emphasis is placed on the metabolic emissions partitioning between the six vehicles during a design reference mission scenario. Ersatz to represent menses are reviewed.
