I was like...mkay the wind was one time plot device. Bigger issue is that he seemed to grow potatoes inside with no mention of lighting at all? That was major omission for me, grow lights require plenty of energy and thus waste heat.
- arethuza 3y agoSunlight on Mars is about 40% of what it is on Earth - and given that potatoes seem to grow quite well in the less sunny parts of this planet (such as here in Scotland) then I'm willing to not get too critical on that particular point.
