The LiW@Space project has been successfully completed.

The LiW@Space project was a success. After 1,5 years of R&D activities the project ended on 19th of June, 2025. The very tangible result is a working Space greenhouse installed onboard the SpaceHome 1:1 demonstrator inside Thales Alenia Space’s facilities in Turin, Italy.

After multiple tests and activities, the Space greenhouse systems work as planned.

If mankind will one day establish long term bases on other planets or on our Moon, many greenhouses will be needed to sustain the astronauts and to make their living outside Earth more bearable.

Thanks to all the partners and to the Vastalla team who worked on the project!
