official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Why do we grow plants in space? Plants are such versatile organisms that they can fulfill many roles in our exploration of space. Plants provide us with food, with oxygen, they can recycle water and waste, and they can even provide us with psychological benefits. So all these functions willContinue reading “Why Do We Grow Plants in Space?”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Scientists have hypothesized since the 1960s that the Sun is a source of ingredients that form water on the Moon. When a stream of charged particles known as the solar wind smashes into the lunar surface, the idea goes, it triggers a chemical reaction that could make water molecules.    Now,Continue reading “Can Solar Wind Make Water on Moon?
