19 days ago I walked into Mars Base Zero and shut the
door. I haven't been out since.
didn't bring any food with me. But I have been eating
regularly, thanks to the fact that this facility is
more greenhouse than anything else. My diet is mostly
potatoes (to the tune of 3-4 pounds a day!), but
includes a lot of other things such as tomatoes,
carrots, beets, lettuce, cabbage, turnips, onions,
etc.
This building is 24' by 44' and includes a small
apartment (8 feet wide and 16 feet long, with a loft).
When I moved in there was around 612 square feet
planted. More than half of that was in potatoes.
Since then I've eaten about half the potatoes (nearly
60 pounds).
I'd welcome questions, comments, etc.
