    The Scientists found out that mold grows about 20 percent faster in space. This is because all of the hi amounts of radiation because space has a lot more of radiation than earth does. The scientists think that the mold uses the radiation as food and that’s why it grows that way.

    The radiation resistant mold is like insane. Think of the industry that would come out of that like radiation resistant, mold farms, and even like the stories of how engineers would figure out how to add that into spaceships would be like mind blowing.

    Since mold does grow faster in those areas, and is a health hazard to us, could it have been the reason the area became radiated in the first place? Or can it grow there?
