ʻO ka meaʻai i ulu ma Mars he palekana ke ʻai

Ma 2026, hoʻolālā ka hui Dutch ʻo Mars One i ka hoʻouna ʻana i kahi koho o nā moho ma kahi huakaʻi hele hoʻokahi i Mars. ʻO ka misionari: e hoʻokumu i kahi kolone kanaka mau.

I mea e hiki ai ia, akā, pono lākou e hoʻokumu i kahi kumu meaʻai mau. ʻO ia ke kumu i kākoʻo ai lākou i ka ʻepekema kahiko ʻo Wieger Wamelink a me kāna hui ma Alterra Wageningen UR e noiʻi i nā mea kanu e ulu kūleʻa ana i ka lepo o ka honua, a ma hope o ia, inā palekana lākou e ʻai.

Ma Iune 23 2016, ua paʻi nā ʻepekema Dutch i nā hopena e hōʻike ana he 4 o nā mea kanu 10 a lākou e ulu nei ma ka lepo Mars artificial i hana ʻia e NASA ʻaʻohe pae weliweli o nā metala kaumaha. ʻO nā mea kanu i hōʻike ʻia i kēia manawa i ka kūleʻa ʻo nā radishes, ka pī, ka rai, a me nā ʻōmato. Ke kali nei nā hoʻāʻo hou aku i nā mea kanu i koe, me ka ʻuala, leek, spinach, garden rocket and cress, quinoa, a me chives.

ʻO nā kumu ʻē aʻe o ka holomua o ka hua

ʻO ka kūleʻa o kēia mau hoʻokolohua, ʻoi aku ka hilinaʻi ma mua o nā metala koʻikoʻi o ka lepo e hoʻomake i nā mea kanu. Ke hana nei nā hoʻokolohua ma ka manaʻo e loaʻa kahi lewa, i loko o nā domes a i ʻole nā ​​​​lumi lalo, e pale aku i nā mea kanu mai ka ʻāina ʻino o Mars.

ʻAʻole ʻo ia wale nō, akā ua manaʻo ʻia e loaʻa ka wai, i hoʻouna ʻia mai ka honua a i ʻole ʻia ma Mars. Hiki ke ʻoki ʻia nā manawa hoʻouna i 39 mau lā me nā rockets plasma (ʻike mua 'atikala), akā, ʻaʻole ia e hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ke kūkulu ʻana i kahi kolone ma Mars.

Eia nō naʻe, inā e ulu nā mea kanu, hana lākou i kahi kaiaola o nā ʻano, lawe i ka carbon dioxide a hoʻokele i ka oxygen i nā hale colonized kūikawā. Me ka hoʻolālā ʻana o NASA e hoʻomaka i kāna huakaʻi ponoʻī a puni 2030 (e ʻike mua 'atikala), hiki i kahi kolone kanaka ma Mars ke lilo i mea maoli.
