Moon Survival
Hydroponics
Done without soil
Uses nutrient solution in a water solvent
How hydroponics work in space
Aeroponics
No Soil used when growing plants
Started use in space in the 1960's
Teens used NASA tech to create aeroponic garden
Conductors
Lets energy flow through material
Should be avoided when thinking about building materials with the idea of warmth in mind
Conductors and insulators experiment
VEGGIE
Way astronauts grow produce
NASA veggie fact sheet
Very useful way to grow crops with low gravity and little extra water
Distillation
A water purification system
Used already on ISS to purify water
Distillation mainly used combined with other purification methods
Water Cycle
The way water goes from the clouds to the ground and back
The water cycle
Pillow Planting
A way that plants are grown while in a growth chamber
Seeds are put in 'pillows' to grow instead of soil
How astronauts grow plants
Water
Insulators
Doesn't let energy flow through the material
Insulators and conductors experiment
Very important factor in Moon Survival
Layers
Better for Keeping Warm
Easier for changing temperatures
Why we wear layers in the cold
Greenhouse
Easy way to grow crops in unstable environment
Should be first thing built on Moon
How space plants are adapting
Synthetic Lighting
Used in replacement of sunlight
Easier for space growth
LED's reduce energy use
APH
Way to grow plants in space
Minimal Crew Involvement
