NASA inspired plant wheel

When NASA needed a way to grow plants in space, they came up with a wheel as such. This design was adapted by DesignLibero to come up with this very sleek, modern garden. The wheel holds over 8 feet of plants, which is surprising due to its size. The entire garden is a powersaver as only one small light is necessary, whereas two larger ones maybe needed for a garden of the same size on a flat bed.
