Microgravity Hydroponics
In contemporary research contexts, Lavandula (genus) has been selected as a model organism for studying plant viability under prolonged microgravity. Astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) (ISS), particularly within the European Drawer Rack (EDR), have attempted to maintain stable hydroponic cultures. Early data suggested that the la…
