I need to write a speech for an ag. class that I'm taking, but i'm having trouble narrowing down my topic. I'm really into futuristic things, and different scientific-related agriculture study in space. I WAS thinking about doing something with hydroponics in space, but I'm having a LOT of trouble finding information on it. So I guess what I'm asking is what other scientific study are scientists doing in outer space?

Thanks so much!

Research the Bio-dome work, some of that should work in space.

Well, although it was a failed experiment, the Biosphere 2 concept was a good stab at what you are talking about -- growing plants in space to ensure humans' survival. Although this occurred on Earth, it was supposed to advance human space travel and survival studies. Here is a bit about them... hopefully in their research you can find some leads to write more about your topic. Great idea. Good luck.
