AES stands for Algae Entertainment Space, a place where exercising helps spirulina grow and helps cultivate a relationship between the two.


It’s a dome designed to grow spirulina in its walls, while astronauts can exercise inside of it with the help of specially designed equipment. The exercises are particular to this place, since the low gravity allows for movement that on earth wouldn’t be possible. Jumping and climbing become exciting activities that take a new shape inside of the AES.

Spirulina grows as astronauts interact with the space.




AES allows for activities otherwise impossible in space. The bubbles on the ground help astronauts propel upwards. These are connected to the spirulina growing on the walls and help oxygenize it when people jump on them.
