NASA and its international partners are planning to return humans to the Moon starting in the mid-2020s under the Artemis program, with the intention of establishing a sustainable human presence on the lunar surface (NASA, 2021). Although it is certain that traditional physicalchemical life support systems and pre-packaged foods will be relied upon by early lunar surface crews, sustained presence will eventually require the incorporation of in-situ food production. Demonstrating the reliability of these biological systems under lunar conditions, such that confidence in such systems is firmly establish, is the first logical step towards a lunar surface plant production system
