Foodtech Village Community Meetup: MiXer #1

After seven months of travelling through space, the NASA InSight mission has landed on Mars. The Red Planet seems not to be far away anymore. The question now is: what we will eat there?

Solving for space actually means being extremely efficient with food, water, air, shelter, and energy - the same things we struggle with on Earth. But it's not just space solutions that can make Mars bloom. Hypercomplex, augmented natural environments can turn desolate land into dream gardens. It is a novel and extremely fascinating science coming out of the Sony Computer Science Lab in Tokyo and it's called synecoculture. Could that be used on Mars?

And how did they grow the food in the Mars simulation dome on Hawaii where a bunch of astronauts voluntarily were locked-up to test life on Mars for a prolonged period of time.

We are thrilled to launch our new Foodtech Village Community Meetup series with a unique discussion regarding Food, Earth and Space.

Sweden Foodtech and Axfoundation are more than happy to invite you to meet Dr. Sian Proctor & Masatoshi Funabashi at Söderhallarna - Stockholm on Dec 19th - 8.30 am.
