As the second semester is kicking into gear for many high schoolers, we haven't lost our stride. Over the holiday break, we conducted a vital experiment with our chlamy algae.
In order to stimulate transportation to the launch pad and space station, we refrigerated chlamy for almost two weeks. The experiment proved to be fruitful as only 4 days after refrigeration, hydrogen was detected. This success is so crucial to the experiment because we need to ensure that our algae will survive the refrigerated transport to the ISS.
Moreover, teams have mixed so that students can experience new sides of the experiment and hopefully provide valuable input. The hardware team is creating plans for our parts and also continues to assemble the bioreactor.
Overall, the class is starting the new year with robust determination and excitement for the experiment.
