Abstract: The Earth-Moon-Mars Radiation Environment Module (EMMREM) is a numerical model for completely characterizing the time-dependent radiation environment in the Earth-Moon-Mars and Interplanetary space environments. The Module includes a 3D energetic particle transport model (EPREM), and utilizes an updated parallelized version of the space radiation transport code (BRYNTRN) developed at NASA Langley Research Center. We are using Earth-Moon-Mars Radiation Environment Module (EMMREM) to perform realistic simulations with observations from January 15, 2005 Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) event for module testing and as an example of the module capabilities. In this work we present and discuss the Earth-Moon-Mars Radiation Environment Module (EMMREM) predictions of the Skin and BFO Dose rate, Dose Equivalent rate and accumulated Doses for human crews on the surface of the Moon, throughout the January 15, 2005 Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) event, for various aluminum and water shield thicknesses. The calculated accumulated skin and BFO Doses will be compared with the 30 days Dose limits for human crews in deep space per NASA_STD_3001 Vol 1 guidelines.
