Build an Arduino Clinostat: Simulate Microgravity for Plants

How do plants grow in space? Can astronauts grow food in a zero-gravity environment? You can do your own experiments right here on Earth to find out! In this science project you will build your own device called a clinostat that rotates seeds so the direction of gravity is constantly changing. You can do experiments to see how this simulated microgravity environment affects seed germination.
