Plants in space

What do plants in space look like?

Invite students to be citizen scientists and think about what plants in space could look like. Using this resource, which brings together James Foley's picture book, Stellarphant, and leading research from the ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space (P4S), help students craft new creative approaches for the future of plants.   

ARC Centre of Excellent in Plants for Space  

P4S is developing technologies to enable humans to survive and thrive in space, reducing the dependence on constant resupply, and using this lens to transform the sustainability of food and bioresource production on Earth.  Find out more at the Plants for Space website.
