If humans are ever going to live beyond Earth, they'll need to construct habitats. But transporting enough industrial material to create livable spaces would be incredibly challenging and expensive.

Single-celled algae and marine bacteria live in a complex but largely unexplored relationship. Now, a new study shows that the surface of diatoms is a surprisingly diverse habitat for bacteria. A team ...

SEAS researchers grew green algae inside shelters that recreated pressure conditions on Mars. The shelters were made from bioplastics derived from algae. The experiments demonstrate the possibility of ...

Austin officials warn lake users to avoid algae, scum and murky water as blue-green algae returns.

As humanity increasingly looks to the stars, the dream of establishing sustainable colonies on Mars becomes more realistic. A significant breakthrough in this direction was recently made by scientists ...

Future plastic habitats on Mars could be created from locally grown algae that could then host more algae-growing operations. The first step of such a circular system has been shown to work in ...
