Tor Blomqvist is a space agronomist at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), focused on developing sustainable food systems for Lunar and Mars missions. His research has spanned from rapid-deployable controlled environmental agriculture (CEA) for emergency scenarios to the integration of post-harvest management subsystems in next-generation agricultural ground test demonstrators. His work also addresses the strategic challenge of implementation, managing uncertainties, and ensuring a viable progression from ground tests to operational food systems. Blomqvist emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches and the nonlinear complexity of food systems, addressing both pragmatic and sociocultural aspects of food in space.
