Botany One on Nostr: The team grew their specimens in three distinct environments at Antarctica's ...
The team grew their specimens in three distinct environments at Antarctica's Comandante Ferraz research station: soil from the plants' native Antarctic home, and special mixtures that replicated the surface conditions of both the Moon and Mars. For 15 days, they carefully tracked how these botanical pioneers adapted to their alien soils.
Antarctica is a much more hospitable environment for life than the Moon or Mars, but does have some value for testing plants.
