The area of crop plants required to sustain a man in an artificial extra-terrestrial environment is probably about 10 m2. If the site is on the Moon, the natural light will alternate with periods of darkness, but will be brighter than any practicable arrangement of artificial lights. The latter can, however, be run continuously. To control plant temperature, an artificial cooling system will be required with either kind of illumination. The energy to be dissipated will be about 700 W m-2 with natural light, or three times this amount with artificial light (high pressure discharge lamps).
