Space Apps Challenge

This weekend there is a sort of hackathon going on around Space Challenges. There is a category for a Martian greenhouse.

From the site:

Develop a conceptual design of a deployable greenhouse that could be used for pre-deployment on a space mission to the Moon or Mars. Consider what kind of habitat the greenhouse will be supporting and how it will interface with the habitat.

I think this is a fantastic opportunity to engage a wider audience and get some fresh ideas. Mars is becoming a common topic of discussion and news; we should use this momentum to get people excited and engaged. Direct LINK to the greenhouse page.

Re: Space Apps Challenge

Great idea. But could we move this to "Life support systems"?
