Coming from the thread on sealed bedrooms: > [@If our bedrooms were air tight, would we be at risk of suffocating overnight?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/if-our-bedrooms-were-air-tight-would-we-be-at-risk-of-suffocating-overnight/839815/21): > > The LM was supposed to keep two people alive for two days, not three people for four days. The command module had enough chemical “scrubber” canisters for removing CO2, but they were designed for the command module and didn’t fit the system in the lunar module. In the end, they had to fabricate an adapter so they could fit the CM’s square canisters to the LM’s round sockets. They didn’t transfer back to the CM until shortly before reentry. I do hope nowadays there would be enough standardization of parts to make items such as scrubber canisters interchangeable throughout. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/apollo-2019-what-steps-would-we-change/837306)._
