Engineering Design Analysis of a Microgravity Chamber with Expandable Boundaries for Root Crops

A closed nutrient delivery chamber with expandable boundaries has been developed to support the growth of root crops, with potential applications in microgravity. The chamber is completely enclosed, separating the root zone from the foliage zone with a padded sealant through which the plant stem pas...
