NASA’s Biomass Production Chamber (BPC) at Kennedy Space Center was decommissioned in 1998, but several crop tests were conducted that have not been reported in the open literature. These include several monoculture studies with wheat, soybean, pot

Plants can provide a means for removing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) while generating oxygen (O 2 ) and clean water for life support systems in space. To study this, 20 m 2 stands of potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) plants were grown in a large (113 m 3 vol.

Lunar Base Agriculture: Soils for Plant Growth
The CELSS Breadboard Project is described, noting that it was initiated to study aspects of a CELSS for long-term space missions. Topics for extensive investigation included air and water regeneration, engineering control, and food production. The ma

Most studies on the effects of elevated CO2 have focused on the effects on plant growth and ecosystem processes. Fewer studies have examined the effects of elevated CO2 on herbivory, and of these, most have examined feeding rates in laboratory condit
