Earthlight, a documentary produced by the University of Arizona College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, explores the challenges facing the human race and how the technology scientists are designing to return to the moon might be the key to humans’ sustainable presence on Earth.

Earthlight leads the audience through a story about the current food challenges our civilization faces through the lens of UA scientists who are building a greenhouse food production system that may someday be used on NASA missions to the moon or even Mars.

By addressing the challenges of keeping astronauts alive with finite resources, the scientists and technical experts working on the project provide new solutions to sustainable food production on Earth.
