Astronauts on China's Tiangong station used artificial photosynthesis to turn CO₂ and water into oxygen and rocket fuel.

China has reached a decisive milestone by achieving the first artificial photosynthesis in space aboard the Tiangong station.

The number of bubbles in your experiment might be different ... So a greater light intensity gives a greater rate of photosynthesis. You’ll need a dark room with a desk lamp, some pondweed ...

Chinese astronauts claim have successfully developed artificial photosynthesis technology in orbit for the first time. This ...

The 12 experiments carried out at the Tiangong space station focused on key technologies such as the conversion of carbon dioxide at room temperature.

This process, called photosynthesis, is essential to the global carbon cycle and organisms that conduct photosynthesis represent the lowest level in most food chains (Figure 1). Most living things ...

Breathing New Air Chinese astronauts claim to have created rocket fuel on board the country's Tiangong space station using a ...

"Until now, researchers have seldom considered the possibility that plants utilize far-red light for photosynthesis," says WUR Ph.D. candidate Tinko Jans. That is because previous experiments with ...

Chinese astronauts on the Tiangong space station have successfully produced oxygen and rocket fuel through artificial ...

Shenzhou-19 astronauts simulate natural photosynthesis, bringing long-haul crewed missions a step closer to reality.

The number of bubbles in your experiment might be different ... So a greater light intensity gives a greater rate of photosynthesis. You’ll need a dark room with a desk lamp, some pondweed ...

The new experiments were carried out by members of the Shenzhou ... which has been fully operational in low-Earth orbit since November 2022. The artificial photosynthesis technology, which has been in ...
