Show Notes
Exhale Montana and Florida Atlantic University collaborate for the third year, launching a mycelium-based carbon dioxide system into the stratosphere. The project, initially a basic proof of concept, has evolved into a sealed chamber capable of handling temperature, pressure, and water delivery at altitudes from 80,000 to 135,000 feet. The mycelium, once used in ten grams, is now reduced to just half a gram, doubling plant capacity to four. The system aims to solve key challenges for growing food autonomously beyond Earth, paving the way for reliable plant systems in unmanned orbital stations.
