Who will feed a multi-planetary human civilization? Barbara Belvisi, founder and CEO of Interstellar Lab, hopes her technology will answer that question. She was inspired to start her company by her childhood spent on her grandparents’ farm in Poland, and by the promise of a multi-planetary human future from Elon Musk’s SpaceX. Belvisi’s big idea?
To develop “intelligent biospheric systems to grow life autonomously on Earth and in Space.”
In the second half of the interview, Belvisi discusses “Mission Little Prince.” The mission is a collaboration with The Antoine de Saint Exupéry Foundation to grow roses on the moon, inspired by the classic novella “The Little Prince.”
