Beans could be grown in space 2021, Astronauts dream to eat fresh food comes true

After successful cultivation of red romaine lettuce (a leaf vegetable) in 2015 , now according to research conducted at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) it is possible to grow beans with help of High-tech planters developed by them. these special planters are capable of regulating  all the essential nutrients,gas and air the plants needs .   Gravity will be simulated by help of centrifuge which is also capable of regulating gravity. Photo by  Mike Kenneally  on  Unsplash Norwegian University of Science and Technology researchers are know collaborating with some other foreign researchers of French and Italian origin to cultivate plant based food for long interplanetary travels . It is  fascinating to know that the longest stays in International Space Station ever is just   six months and for travelling to Mars it will require at least a year , just double!! So we know that with limited supplies from ou...
