Engineer and diving enthusiast Sergio Gamberini, sole administrator of Me.Stel, has undertaken many studies that led to the birth of this project. "Inside the biosphere there is a stable climate thanks to the constant temperature of the sea as well as stable humidity thanks to the evaporation of sea water."
"The natural photosynthesis cycle is activated by the light that comes from outside and it enables to maintain a sufficient level of oxygen and Co2. Last but not least, unless they are already on the plants, insects and parasites cannot reproduce in the biosphere, so we can save money on pest control."
At the moment, it seems that plants are growing well, as they are already 7 cm high. Saudi Arabia has already asked for a prototype to grow lettuce.
