Border Labs and ESA organize their second European Space Farm Collective lab session. Following the engaging Border Sessions event in The Hague in July, two projects will be on the ‘menu’:

• 'Recipes for Space' Challenge: what our future astronauts will grow, prepare and cook in 2020 to survive in space;

• Plant Characterization Kit: Ph of the soil, CO2, sunlight, nutrients, and other factors determine how different plants grow. Work on developing a DIY citizen science kit to educate the next generation plant experts.

Next to these projects there will be plenty of time during the session to talk about the overall development of the Space Farming Collective in the upcoming months.

Limited places available, so please register early!

Price: free.
When: Thursday morning (Sept. 15) -- 9.30am-1pm
