Re:Quantum Dots Shift Sunlight's Spectrum to Speed Plant Growth

It's pretty clear that sunlight isn't the absolute best spectrum for growing plants, so we know plants haven't evolved optimally to make use of the sun's spectrum as-is. I think a local max is the right idea. this tech is shortcutting that evolution and providing a better spectrum without using electricity, like LEDs would.

apparently the company is working with NASA for crop growth in Lunar/Martian subterranean grow modules https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/nasa-awards-ubiqd-s...
