BUFFALOKIE Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Cool. I now want some Martian and Moon soil to ammend my tomato plots!

I think they could combine earthworm and tardigrade DNA to make a real nasty, space-surviving, soil recycler. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
