HyperGES

In the first round of HyperGES in 2019-2020, a student team from Mahidol University, Thailand was awarded the fellowship. The experiment is to study the effect of hypergravity on watermeal, the smallest and fastest-growing flowering plant on Earth. It will help unlock various possibilities for future application of the plant as a food and oxygen source for space exploration and on other planets which may have higher gravity than on Earth.
