It&#8217;s an ancient grain,&rdquo; said Borsuk, who determined that she could significantly increase the edible parts, which is basically the entire plant, by changing the lighting. &ldquo;If you move the lights and have some of them overhead and some of them within the plant leaves, it can actually stimulate them to grow faster and larger.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>This is without adding more lights and by using energy efficient <abbr title=\"light emitting diode\">LED<\/abbr>s. Thanks to Borsuk&#8217;s work with lighting, plants could play an important role in the future of space travel.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This plant would do the same thing that it does here on Earth, which is regenerate oxygen in the atmosphere,&rdquo; said Borsuk. &ldquo;It also can provide nutrition for the astronauts and if you can imagine being away from Earth for many years, you know tending something that&#8217;s green would have a psychological boost as well.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>A 2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/offices\/studentaffairs\/scholarships\/raps-overview.php\"><abbr>UH<\/abbr> Presidential Scholar<\/a>, Borsuk presented her research at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spacegrant.hawaii.edu\/\"><span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Âé¶¹´«Ã½<\/span> Space Grant Consortium<\/a> Spring 2016 Fellowship and Traineeship Symposium and at the 2016 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashs.org\/\">American Society for Horticultural Science Conference<\/a> in Florida.
