Thank You & Update

Thank you backers!! No words can express how grateful we are for your support and generosity. We are currently consulting with a biology teacher and cultivating the algae in a 2.5 gallon tank. If you are willing, an extra $20 for nutrients and salts would greatly benefit our experiment and take it to the next level. Again, thank you so much and thank you for believing in our work.

About This Project

Our goal is to create the foundation for a sustainable source of light. We found species of bio-luminescent algae create light through a chemical reaction between Luciferin and oxygen. Using this reaction as a source of light might be a more sustainable and alterable way of illuminating our homes and workplaces. Alongside two other high school students, our research question is: can we control the amount of light produced by algae by varying the oxygen in the environment?
