Greenhouse Experiment on ISS

- Paolo Nespoli, unfortunately has had to terminate his education experiment Greenhouse in Space due to the fact he noticed some fungus growing beside one of the plants. In this video, he takes great care to explain exactly what
has happened and shows us all the procedures that are necessary on the ISS to maintain a safe environment. Although Paolo managed to grow some healthy plants in one of his greenhouses, no risks can be taken.
Paolo encourages all the children participating in the Greenhouse experiment to carry on trying to grow Arabidopsis from seed to seed as this is important for the future of long duration and distance space travel.
GMT (since this is the time kept on ISS) and probably the time where his family are living. Sometimes the astronauts also wear watches that are part of one of the ISS experiments - a heartrate monitor for example.
I wanna se footage of plants growing and animals in space!
I believe their is some sort of a microbiology sampler on the ISS. As a Chemistry student I would have collected the whole apparatus including the plants and the fungus, stored them in the MELFI Freezer, and brought them home for analysis. You can better tell what actually is the problem.
I was very happy to hear when this started, I am sad about the results, but I suppose the first time aint the charm :D I am quite shocked that it is going to be burnt on reentry tho, shouldn't we analyze the mold and specimin to see if we can do something difft next time to make it better? I hope I get to be the ISS gardener someday - that would not even be a remote possibiltiy without this preliminary research ! Great job everyone and thanks ESA
I'm not a salad fan, but salad on Mars sounds delicious.
@infera1 The reason these experiments are conducted is to better research if we are able to create self-sustained food sources with plants in contained environments. Creating self-sustained, self-contained food systems is important in space.
I would love it was made more experiments shows on the ISS and one would be two strings with both balls attached each side being throw rotating to check if they stay together in the centre axis.... For example...
I wonder if he'll get back to earth, forget about the gravity, let go of a bag in midair and expect it to be suspended
Paolo Nespoli will fly to ISS again on 30 May 2017, as a part of Expedition 52/53.
Could it be because there is no sunlight? Might that be the reason that the seeds won't grow?
You can grow with artificial light...
Guys, this astronaut is Italian, not Russian!
Why he killed the plants?
So after two decades in space we know pretty much nothing about growing plants, I thought that this sort of experiments had been done long time ago, how difficult could it be, put a seed in the pot, wrap it air tight plastic and watch it grow
wow
One probably shows time in Houston, US, the other one European time... I think
If there's a possibility of an airborne threat which he's protecting himself from then why the hell there's no such protection for the whole station and other crew members... What kind of safety regulations is this ..
true, the sample should be in a glovebox
The Real Question Is, Do You Think The Fungus is Necessary For Growth?
why plant greenhouse are toxic space station?
He has two watches on, does anyone know why?
I noticed this as well. A bit strange.
nice
I wonder how would taking out the trash look in space...
they go off of Greenwich mean time not American or Russian so my guess is Russia and greenwich
Cant you just fly a green house to space
I have those exact same 3m masks at work. They suck.
9 years later:
That's an excessive amount of trash.
that was actualy lame.
I wish they could make more awesome experiments with zero gravity.
Like with water or stuff flying in air.
