- tagami 5y agoWe are sending M. Sativa (alfalfa, lucerne) into space this October in our 10th plant mission in microgravity under a global education project with UN and others called “carbon farmer”. Stressors in microgravity could shed clues on optimization for a changing climate and off-world production. Post flight research (tomography, electron microscopy, single cell transcriptomics) is being done at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and the Joint Genomics Institute. HTTPS://magnitude.io
