For years astronauts have fed on pre-packaged food, however due to the evolution in space travel the missions are now longer, thus making obsolete the prolonged duration of the nutrients of this food. That is why NASA considers the cultivation of fresh food in outer space to meet the nutritional needs of a crew, taking into account this situation it is found that the main problem lies in achieving the development of low-maintenance crops in a space environment and that in turn these can be a reliable and safe food source.

PROBLEM

4 of 7

SOLUTION

Through the implementation of technological and biological elements, it is sought to obtain a system that achieves successful food crops under the conditions of a space mission with the necessary requirements for its growth, implementing a multifunctional system capable of storing packaged food, growing fresh food and generating living conditions supported by photobioreactors; using little space.

Also presenting an autonomous operation with minimal team interaction, including monitoring elements that will reach a software that provides and saves information for future missions.

INNOVATION AND FUTURE

    • Autonomous.
    • Multitasking.
    • Structure and design.
    • Implementation of photobioreactors.

The proposed system is only the prelude to an even more complete project, some of the innovations and results that can be carried out in the future:

1.Research of bioreactors for future missions.

2.Properties of algae to replace the supply of transported oxygen.

3. Production of biomass to be used as food.

4. Adaptability of the system to any type of plant/seed.

5. Use of genetically modified plants.

6. Efficiency in space.

7. Generate living conditions on other planets.
