wow, people really underestimate the ground! same with plants too, most of their life goes on below our feet…

spooky! what kind of stuff?

Metaphorical haunches lowered :)

I’m pretty sure it’s not a bioreactor, since it’s used for organic synthesis. I reckon the purification steps would be a lot even so!

For places besides the USA, which don’t have access to large scale synthesis, I’d imagine it’s more useful. Plus, not everyone can rely on their politicians…
