A prototype system to grow and manufacture mycelium-based composites in space using red reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) was reviewed in this paper. Researchers cultivated mycelium in compact mid-deck lockers, compressing it into interlocking hexagonal tiles tested for strength at Ohio State. The tiles showed properties comparable to wood and, in some cases, concrete, with added benefits like insulation, soundproofing, and fire resistance for future uses in space stations, lunar bases, and even Mars habitats.
