I'm a undergraduate student developing a Mars simulation project. I'm looking
at how the EM spectrum would effect photosynthesis in an atmospheric
composition simular to that of Mars. I'm interested in how plant growth was
accelerated using this hyper-light system. First I will clarify my
project...My simulation is based on a future Mars station greenhouse. The
greenhouse would allow for has much natural light as possible to allow energy
resources to be used for other Mars station functions. Plants in the
greenhouse would grow under the same conditions here on earth, the difference
would be the EM spectrum (radiation) penetrating through the martian
atmosphere (different composition) thus possibly effecting photosynthesis.
NASA is currently proposing to build a chamber that can test these effects.

1.) Am I correct in using the 1000 slices, that the energy increase would be
doubled if you can penetrate one of those slices...using that energy for the
increase? If this is true, doubling the amount of UV radiation exposure to
plants would have some serious physioloical consequences.
2.) Is there a web page were I can go to to see the data on accelerated plant
growth concerning this hyper-light project.
