Scientists have successfully grown algae under simulated Mars conditions and are now using it to produce bioplastics. This advancement could support future space missions and sustainable materials on Earth.

Researchers create strong biodegradable plastic from bamboo

Scientists in China have developed a hard plastic from bamboo cellulose that matches the strength of conventional engineering plastics used in cars and appliances. This bioplastic is fully recyclable and biodegrades in soil within 50 days. The innovation addresses limitations in bioplastics' mechanical properties and manufacturing compatibility.
