LED lighting efficient planting food can make astronauts fly farther

According to foreign media reports, Mike Dixon from the University of Guelph is leading a research team dedicated to the development of an LED technology that allows astronauts to grow food in space at the most efficient rate.

If we want to achieve manned missions on Mars and beyond, we must overcome many important technical obstacles. Building a flying vessel capable of transporting astronauts to the solar system outside the solar system is one of the problems we need to face. Ensuring that there is enough food on the road for astronauts to eat is almost a daunting challenge.


Professor Dixon is the head of the research equipment for controlled environmental systems, and is also the test site for this experiment. The goal of this study was to test to see which specific wavelengths are optimal for the growth of various plants. The resources of any interplanetary mission are bound to be limited, so energy efficiency is the key. The smaller the weight we send into space, the better we can carry the interstellar missions, and the astronauts can't travel to the food store halfway to Mars.

The research team is working on technologies that use LEDs to optimize plant growth. What they value most is the efficiency of LED lighting. Because when resources are scarce, you can get many photons with less energy. LED lights can also be used to generate the specific wavelengths necessary for plant growth, and the researchers used lettuce for testing in the experiment because the plants grow easily and grow rapidly. Researchers will use the findings to improve the growth of more nutritious crops such as strawberries and sacred fruit. Dixon believes that the peculiar method of LED light source will be applied within 15 to 20 years, allowing astronauts to plant a large number of physical objects in space, perhaps for Mars missions.

This brush is 2 In 1 Bed Or Sofa Brush. This brush is including fur brush and anti static brush,so it is called 2 in 1 brush. When your bedspread is a little dirty,you can clean it by this anti static brush. It also can clean the sofa easily. When the sofa is dirty with dust,you can use the fur brush to clean it. The fue brush will clean it very easily. The anti static brush also can be used to clean the sofa. In a word,it is a very useful brush with high cost-performance,hope you will like it. Now let's see the picture about it.
