1. Prototype Development: Create a small-scale prototype to validate the design concept.
2. Scalability: Scale the prototype to incorporate a "Growing Beyond Earth" LED panel.
3. Zero Gravity Simulation: Ensure the system can simulate zero gravity by rotating plants on multiple axes.
4. Light Integration: Integrate LED panel to provide adjustable light that moves with the plants.
5. Watering system: Develop a system for watering the plants while they are in motion. (Key focus)
6. Random motion: Ensure that the movement of the clinostat is random to create a better low-gravity simulation.
7. Plant encasement and diversity: Create or utilize a casing that will sit in the middle of the clinostat without moving and allow for a wide variety of vegetation to be able to grow in it.
8. Lightweight and Durable: Construct the clinostat out of lightweight and durable material to ensure that there is limited stress across the entire device.
9. Testing and Validation: Perform a series of tests to assess the performance of the scaled-up clinostat, and record/analyze the growth of plants under various conditions and compare with control samples.
10. Cost efficient: Establish a design for the clinostat that is cost-effective, ensuring that several clinostats can be constructed at as cheap a price as possible if more are needed.
