Open Questions and Challenges: 

Questions remaining to be addressed:

SCALE of the biome (number of plants, and consequently, quantity of water and nutrients, number of people the biome can benefit)?

What plants are we using?

Are astronauts allowed inside the Martian biome?

Are we really still extracting water from Mars? (After a group discussion, this seem like a very energy-intensive and difficult task to achieve; we believe bringing water from Earth and dealing with its circulation and reuse in the biome is the better alternative).

What is to be built as a final product and how does it inform its Martian counterpart? What are the materials we're using, are they only representations of the actual biome? Will there be a problem of scaling up our environment?
