    The world doesn’t have enough supply of organs for transplant

    We cannot grow synthetic organs on earth because complex tissue collapses under its own weight during the growing process on earth

    Space has much lower gravity. We might be able to grow synthetic organs there.

    When I’m old and my Grandkids can get full organ transplants with kidneys grown on the moon, I just might thank the Artemis missions.
