Description
Summary:- EDEN ISS Greenhouse: A confined test facility at the Neumayer III station in Antarctica for testing methods for space crop production. - A unique opportunity to evaluate the microbiology of plants grown in an ecologically isolated environment. -Plants are cultivated in an aeroponic system in a potentially low microbial diversity environment. - Like a space craft, microbes are introduced by the crew, water, air and other environmental factors.
