The problem of water supply for cosmonauts during long-duration space flight is reviewed. After it is shown that water constitutes the major weight in life support systems, natural water regeneration processes are discussed. Soviet and U.S. experiments with water regeneration systems are reviewed and the Salyut-4 regeneration system, which fulfilled one-half of the cosmonaut's drinking needs, is described. (Author)
