Space
When you gaze into the night sky, what do you envision among the celestial bodies? We perceive boundless opportunities.
Cosmic Exploration, Defense, and Adaptability
The core mission of AirryZen revolves around addressing the global food crisis. We strive towards this goal by designing and constructing commercial-scale Zen factories that produce nutritious and functional protein with minimal emissions and resource utilization. However, our vision extends beyond the confines of Earth; we aspire to leverage our expertise and capabilities to cultivate food from the void of space. If we can achieve this feat in space, we are confident in our ability to replicate it anywhere.
Space serves as the ultimate challenge for testing the resilience of our bioprocess. It not only presents an opportunity to contribute to the advancement of scientific history but also allows us to expand and diversify our business. Collaborating with organizations committed to exploring the final frontier, we aim to address their food-related challenges, opening up two key possibilities:
SPACE REPRESENTS THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE – SUCCESSFULLY GROWING FOOD THERE MEANS WE CAN ACCOMPLISH IT ANYWHERE
Firstly, as Mars stands as a significant destination in humanity’s space exploration goals, the critical issue of ensuring a secure food supply during extended missions remains unresolved. Carrying all necessary food for the duration of a Mars mission using current spacecraft is virtually impossible. Growing food in-flight would make such missions a practical reality.
Secondly, cultivating food on existing space stations in low-earth orbit addresses the cost-efficiency aspect. The expense of sending one kilogram of cargo to space is estimated at $20,000 or more. If Zen production can occur in orbit, it could alleviate the need for frequent maintenance flights. Every kilogram of food grown in space translates to significant cost savings or increased space for payload cargo, including research equipment.
Initiatives like the Artemis Program, aiming to establish a prolonged presence on the Moon and subsequently guide a manned mission to Mars, exemplify efforts that tackle the challenges of feeding astronauts in space.
Resilience on Earth is another facet we aim to develop further. Crafting container-sized Zen production units renders our bioprocess mobile, offering novel solutions for challenging conditions. Whether in remote communities, outposts, disaster zones, or military defense situations, having a secure food source in the event of disrupted supply is crucial. Constructing resilient solutions not only saves lives but also provides valuable insights into optimizing our bioprocess.
Space and Resilience constitute integral components of our business strategy, and we are actively engaged in various initiatives and projects within these domains.
SPACE AND RESILIENCE: OUR GOAL IS TO EXPLORE THE COSMOS AND ENSURE A RELIABLE FOOD SUPPLY EVEN IN THE MOST ADVERSE CONDITIONS HERE ON EARTH
