(A) A photograph of the OSCAR system mounted in the flight enclosure prepared for mission NS-17 at the Blue Origin Launch Site One near Van Allen, TX. (B) Schematic of the pertinent systems of OSCAR. The blue arrows indicate the direction of gas flow. Note that the gases in the collection tanks were filtered, whereas the gases from the reactor were not.
