Artificial Silk Leaf that can produce Oxygen in Space
We know that plants produce oxygen here on earth but what about space. Everyone believes that plants cannot survive in the space. However, one person still believes that oxygen can be created in space and he had proven it. Julian Melchiorri, who graduated from Royal College of Art has developed an Artificial silk leaf that can produce oxygen.
Artificial silk leaf is a true blessing for future space travelling missions to Exo-Planets. Besides producing oxygen in space, this leaf can also filter the polluted air on earth. This leaf is created by extracting the protein matrix found in the ?Silk and Chloroplast?. This Artificial Silk leaf can act similar in properties to the natural leaf. And the Good thing is that it?s Eco-Friendly leaving no harmful traces to damage environment around it.
