Podcast: Simple Seeds Experiment to Space Follow Us: Comments 0 Podcast: Simple Seeds Experiment to Space About Your students can be involved in a mission to space! Hear from Ted Tagami, founder of Magnitude.io, as we talk about a plant growth experiment heading to the International Space Station on the SpaceX-31 resupply mission, where your students can grow the ground trials. Hosted by Ben Newsome from Fizzics Education More Information About the FizzicsEd Podcast About Simple Seeds Partners Magnitude.io ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space SARDI: Australian Pastures Genebank AVA Challenge Challenge: Create an environment to grow the healthiest plant from seed. The system you create will be self-contained, with water being added only at the start. Record and compare your results with others around the world including one in microgravity on the ISS over 4 weeks. What substrate will your seeds grow in? Where will you place your growth chamber? If it is in a window, what direction does the window face? Where is your school located in the world? (Lat/Long) What does the weather look like during your experiment?
