Good food for everyone on Earth and beyond听
Deep Space Food Challenge
In response to NASA and the Canadian Space Agency鈥檚 Deep Space Food Challenge (DSFC), 69热视频鈥檚 Biomass Production Laboratory has formed the MARTLET (69热视频 Advanced bio-Regenerative Toolkit for Long-Excursion Trips) team. To date, this group of over 100 students has successfully submitted 6 design proposals to the competition and is among the largest teams competing in the DSFC.
Drawing from the Biomass Production Laboratory鈥檚 long-established expertise, MARTLET has proposed various mechanisms for feeding astronauts in deep space, including technologies to grow plants, algae, fungi, and insects as alternative food sources.
In addition, MARTLET has obtained multiple industry partnerships, including UTechnologies, in order to further bolster the strength of their designs.
