# the moon's vision of the chinese space station's “space dishing” is not only getting closer, but has already borne fruit. With the technological breakthroughs, the chinese astronauts have plowed on orbits a “source of peaches” full of chinese poetry. On the basis of the latest scientific findings, the chinese space station has now succeeded in on-orbit cultivation of more than 10 crops, such as cherry tomatoes, wheat, wheat, sunflower, potatoes, mints and raw vegetables. This marks a comprehensive leap for our space agriculture from its early “live” to “good”. In our recent mission, we have achieved a number of major breakthroughs in space-planting technology: 1. For the first time in the country, cherry tomatoes and wheat are being cultivated in-orbit aerosols: based on new plant aerosol culture devices, scientific teams have successfully validated key technologies such as the efficient use of spectral and water fertilizers, and the cultivation of cherry tomatoes has been impressive and productive. 2. For the first time in the country, there is space closed on-orbit breeding of mice: an important technical basis has been laid for the follow-up of space mammal experiments. For the first time in orbit, two generations of rice cultivation experiments have been carried out globally: the mystic 23 crew is conducting a full-fledged closed-ring experiment on rice “from seed to seed to seed”, aimed at analysing the effects of the microgravity environment on the genetic stability of rice and providing theoretical support for the “in situ production” of food in future deep space detection. From the first attempt to plant raw vegetables in space in 2016 to today's multi-series, regular space cultivation, chinese astronauts are providing vital survival guarantees for humans to move to deep space and to achieve a long-term presence by expanding the variety and technological capabilities of space cultivation. # space food #
