jsc2025e015703 (3/6/2025) --- An example of plant-based burger patties made with Chlorella protein concentrate. The SOPHie’s ON hamSTER (SOPHONSTER) investigation aims to cultivate microalgae (Chlorella sp.) in a space environment to study growth, protein content, and cell wall rigidity under microgravity conditions. Results could elucidate ways to improve plant-based, protein-rich alternatives to meat. Image courtesy of Sophie’s BioNutrients.
