===History of DNA synthesizer idea in SSI===
===History of DNA synthesizer idea in SSI===
The idea of a DNA synthesizer for space has been floating around SSI for some time. [[John Cumbers - Synthetic Biology | One of the earliest recordings stretches back to 2013, in a talk given John Cumbers.]] John Cumbers was also consulted during the initial conception and planning of the project in the summer of 2015.
