Introduction The future of human space missions relies on the ability to provide adequate food resources for astronauts and also reduce stress due environment (microgravity cosmic radiation). In this context, microgreens have been proposed astronaut diet because their fast-growing time high levels bioactive compounds nutrients (vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, etc.), which are even higher than mature plants, usually consumed as ready-to-eat vegetables. Methods Our study aimed identify best...
The in-orbit cultivation of vegetables, fruits, and edible plants is paramount importance for the development long-term manned space mission Environmental Control Life Support Systems (ECLSS) improvement bio-regenerative systems. GreenCube a 3U CubeSat aimed at demonstrating functionalities an autonomous laboratory that stems from collaboration between Sapienza University Rome, Italian Space Agency, Naples "Federico II", ENEA. satellite will cultivate microgreens in pressurized vessel...
Soilless cultivation of saffron (Crocus sativus) in a controlled environment represents an interesting alternative to field cultivation, order obtain standardized high-quality product and optimize yields. In particular, pharma-grade is fundamental for therapeutic applications this spice, whose efficacy has been demonstrated the treatment macular diseases, such as Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). work, hydroponic system was developed, specifically designed meet needs C. sativus plant....
The 2020s is a very important decade in the space sector, where international cooperation moving towards exploration of Moon and will lead to stable lunar settlements, which require new, innovative, efficient technologies. In this context, project LOOPS–M (Lunar Operative Outpost for Production Storage Microgreens) was created by students from Sapienza University Rome with objective designing some main features greenhouse. developed IGLUNA 2021 campaign, an interdisciplinary platform...
