英国科学家在模拟月球土壤中种植茶叶植物,这是向可持续的月球任务迈出的一步。 British scientists grew tea plants in simulated lunar soil, a step toward sustainable Moon missions.

英国科学家成功地在模拟月球土壤中种植了茶叶植物,这是一项突破,表明未来的月球任务可以种植粮食。 British scientists successfully grew tea plants in simulated lunar soil, a breakthrough suggesting future Moon missions could grow food. 这项实验由肯特大学主导,并得到达特摩茶和其他合作伙伴的支持, 实验显示茶叶苗在月球规流模拟剂中在受控的温室条件下壮成长, 与火星模拟剂不同. Led by the University of Kent and supported by Dartmoor Tea and other partners, the experiment showed tea saplings thrived in lunar regolith simulant under controlled greenhouse conditions, unlike in Martian simulant. 这些结果在空间农业讲习班上提出,通过现场利用资源,为月球上的可持续生活带来了希望。 The results, presented at a space agriculture workshop, offer hope for sustainable life on the Moon through in-situ resource utilization. 研究人员说,研究结果可以推进空间耕作,帮助解决地球土壤退化问题,并计划测试其他作物和研究在地外条件下植物的反应。 Researchers say the findings could advance space farming and help address Earth’s soil degradation, with plans to test other crops and study plant responses in extraterrestrial conditions.
