Enceladus Farm: Can plants grow with Enceladus' water? (Preliminary Report) [PDF]
Enceladus is a saturnian satellite that should have liquid water inside of it (subsurface ocean). Measurements and experiments on water plume from Enceladus have revealed that Enceladus' ocean contains several salts such as NaCl. On the Earth, salt in soil has become a serious problem for agriculture, and importance of salt-tolerant plants are ...

Eurythmic Dancing with Plants -- Measuring Plant Response to Human Body Movement in an Anthroposophic Environment [PDF]
This paper describes three experiments measuring interaction of humans with garden plants. In particular, body movement of a human conducting eurythmic dances near the plants (beetroots, tomatoes, lettuce) is correlated with the action potential measured by a plant SpikerBox, a device measuring the electrical activity of plants, and the leaf movement ...
