What about water? Are they going to pollute the moon the way they have polluted the earth?
“The container will send potatoes, arabidopsis seeds and silkworm eggs to the surface of the Moon. The eggs will hatch into silkworms, which can produce carbon dioxide, while the potatoes and seeds emit oxygen through photosynthesis. Together, they can establish a simple ecosystem on the Moon.”
... For 10 seconds.
Ha! I read that as upcoming Chinese leader!
These are the same people who equip their soldiers with airsoft equipment and plastic helmets.
I don’t get how bad the US had to have been on the global scale to hand over the entire planet to these knuckleheads.
I still recall the time at the deli where an angry mob formed around a chinese family because they wouldn’t get out of line, nor understand that they can’t buy 2 pounds of lobster. The idea of buying whole lobsters eluded them.
I hope it has enough battery life to last the 14 days every month it will be in total darkness.
If I was in charge, I’d send sea monkeys and Chia pets and just sit back and watch ‘em grow! It’s a fact that brine shrimp love the Bob Ross Chi-Chi-Chi-Chia!
If they’re planning a daylight landing those worms will cook at 250 degrees temperature.
Maybe that was what they were planning. Cooked potato’s and worms?
Sounds like the Chinese have developed a way of growing plants in cheddar.
On their list should be:
*Wolves
*Pythons
*Pigeons
*Clintons
While they’re at it...throw in some kudzu vines and maybe some crabgrass seeds.
Sounds like they are getting ready to open up a Chinese carry-out and a silk factory on Mars. Well, at least the Martians will be well-fed and dressed, not the No. Koreans.
Well, plants and insects are part of it.... What about water, atmosphere, warmth, fertile soil? With the right building, people could grow plants just about anywhere given the controlled environment.
I think what maybe interesting is the reaction of the bugs. Will the insects be able to adapt to less gravity? How will they fair outside of the Earth’s geomagnetic forces?

Seems like an awfully expensive way to go about killing bugs and plants.
