Heading to the Royal Adelaide Show?

@plants4space will be in the Pet & Tech Centre for the next 10 days. Pop by, say hello & learn more about how we’re redesigning plants to support human health in Space & improve the sustainability of plant and food production systems on Earth!

[Richard Harvey @RichardMHarvey]

Joined Miles Davies from the Andy Thomas Centre for Space Resources (ATCSR) to meet a delegation from @NASASCaN and @NASAJPL to provide an overview of ATSCR and @plants4space. P4S and ATCSR students gave great introductions to their amazing work. @UniofAdelaide @AusSpaceAgency

We are hiring! 3Y Postdoc positions in ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space! Perth, Australia. Use your plant biochem, mol biol or synbio skills to optimise plants for space exploration & vertical farming. @plants4space @Int_SpaceCentre @SMS_UWA https://t.co/ddvAwmazJ5

[The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand @ConversationEDU]

Astronauts living and working on the moon will need something to eat.

Australian school students are experimenting with 'space veggies' in a NASA initiative. @latrobe's @KimLJohnson4 explains how the program is connecting kids with nature.

Looking forward to working with @AndyThomasSpace on @plants4space education and outreach. It was also great to see the plants in space exhibit at the Aust Space Discovery Centre!!

[Richard Harvey @RichardMHarvey]

Food security is an increasingly important issue for the APAC region. Australian innovation through initiatives such as @plants4space can help solve sustainability challenges. Lots learned at Singapore Agri-Food Week!

[Richard Harvey @RichardMHarvey]

Talking about the future of food with dentists turned food manufacturers, Resh and Preyesh from Eat Curious.

A key mission of @plants4space is to create complete nutrition plant-based food to support human habitation in Space and sustainability on Earth.

[Richard Harvey @RichardMHarvey]

Australia is well placed to deliver agri-food tech innovations that support Singapore’s ambition to produce 30% of their nutritional needs locally by 2030.

It was great share with Aus High Commissioner to Singapore how @plants4space will help deliver sustainable food solutions.
