High-Level Project Summary
We are working on the project Have seeds will travels. Our mission to cover the journey between earth and mars by making model through which the astronauts can get the proper nutrition by growing their own food. The key nutrients and vitamins (such as Vitamins B1, C, and K). We have made two amazing idea CBSTGM-1 AND LTMSBS-1. Where CBSTGM-1 is a composed base system where we use the wastage of astronauts as the main food of the seeds. And in CBSTGM-1 we use chemical to make the seeds grow. We have choose those crops which grow in low light and low water. The most important feature of our model is it gives highest output with lowest wastage.

Detailed Project Description
We are working on the project Have Seeds Will Travel.
Our mission is to cover the journey from earth to mars and mars to earth.
We made a model by which the astronauts can get the proper nutrition by growing their own food. We have calculated the system for traveling from earth to mars and come back from there.
We have found that the astronauts need in that time, the key nutrients and vitamins (such as Vitamins B1, C, and K) we have to get it from our challenge description. We have made two amazing ideas
CBSTGM-1 AND LTMSBS-1.
CBSTGM-1
CBSTGM-1 is a composed baseD system where we use the wastage of astronauts as the main food of the seeds. And in CBSTGM-1 we use chemicals IN COMPRESSED CLAY BASE, to make the seeds grow. it uses compost+fartilizer+clay in a compressed bag or base.
We have chosen those crops which grow in low light and low water. The most important feature of our model is it gives the highest output with the lowest wastage. The first system where we used was composed to grow seeds. We used the wastage of the astronauts like their human waste and their wastage like carbon-di-oxide.

Its monitoring and environmental control systems regulate temperature, oxygen, and carbon dioxide levels, and the system settings can be adjusted for growing different types of plants. Although the system is largely autonomous, the crew adds water to the chamber and changes atmospheric elements such as an ethylene scrubber, carbon dioxide scrubber & bottles, and filters.The APH supports research solicited through NASA Research Announcements (NRAs) that are designed to meet NASA’s goals for the successful completion of exploration missions and the preservation of astronaut health throughout the life of the astronaut.

Moon and man is not really soil.it rejolith or loose, rocky materials made from volcanic ash that does not have an abundance of organic materials. That's why we use organic materials for growing a plant
These early experiences proved that humans could eat and swallow in weightlessness with no ill effects, although the meals weren’t particularly appetizing.

our planet are constantly moving along their own orbits around the Sun. But on average, Mars is about 225 million km/140 million miles from Earth.
Big numbers — and really not even all that big in an astronomical sense. So to give a sense of what it means to cross the distance between here and Mars, our entire planet were reduced to a sphere 100 pixels in diameter, and you could travel outward at a velocity of 200,000km/h

Astronauts basically do the same thing when they go to space. Preparation varies with the food type. Some foods can be eaten in their natural forms, such as brownies and fruit. Other foods require adding water, such as macaroni and cheese or spaghetti. Of course, an oven is provided in the space station to heat foods to the proper temperature. There are no refrigerators in space, so space food must be stored and prepared properly to avoid spoilage, especially on longer missions.
Condiments, such as ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise, are provided. Salt and pepper are available but only in a liquid form. This is because astronauts can't sprinkle salt and pepper on their food in space. The salt and pepper would simply float away. There is a danger they could clog air vents, contaminate equipment or get stuck in an astronaut's eyes, mouth or nose

Scientists grew lettuce in microgravity oven a period of thirty -five days . According to BMC last year lettuce grown that was sent back to earth to be analyzed for safety concerns . Its a little tricky since plants have evolved stems to fight against gravitational forces. According to ISS ues the veggies system developed by orbital technologies in Mandison ,wisconsin. The system contains lightning and nutrients for a space garden as red ,blue and green LEDS.
The red and blue mostly for plant growth and health.The green ,so the plants do not look . plants get nutrients from pillow and pillows come in various sizes depending on what kind of veggies are grown in them.Pillows only work ,once through but that,s by design because there,s a reduced chance of microbial growth from system and plants. A sanitation process an developed by Scott Kelly and his buddies use citric acid - based ,food - safe wipes to clean.

Hackathon Journey
Hi, We are from team Fly High. Now we are going to talk about our journey in Nasa Space Apps Challenge. It's really an exciting journey for all of us. At first, we are really confused about the project. But as a team, we were looking forward to seeing what innovative and creatives ideas we came up with.In this journey we learns about science, amazing creating by scientists, development of technology. We all like to explore space science. So this time we took "HAVE SEEDS WILL TRAVEL " challenge. A human mission to Mars has been the subject of science fiction since the 1880s, and of aerospace engineering. The exploration of Mars has been a goal of national space programs for decades.But in this journey one of the main problems is food.From this concept we came up with this project CBSTPGM-1. For our project, we came up with many ideas like sensor, sunlight restore, chemical systems etc.It's a really complicating project. Working in zero gravity is always been a challenge. But besides that as we all are students so time management is always been a challenge to us. But as a team, we always help each other.We really supported each each other in our hard time. For that at first thanks to all my team members. Thank you Salauddin, Sumi Runa Nayem and Mobashshara for everything. Thanks Nasa App challenged for giving us this opportunity. Thanks to our mentors for guiding us. Thanks, everyone.
