Enceladus is a saturnian satellite that should have liquid water inside of it(subsurface ocean). Measurements and experiments on water plume from Enceladushave revealed that Enceladus' ocean contains several salts such as NaCl. On theEarth, salt in soil has become a serious problem for agriculture, andimportance of salt-tolerant plants are indicated. In order to test the effectof Enceladus' water to terrestrial plant, by hydroponic, we tried to grow threesalt-tolerant plants (ice plant, swiss chard and salicornia) simulatingEnceladus' water (Enceladus Farm project). Using water with 0.33% NaCl and 0.4%NaHCO$_3$, which is consistent with the observations of Enceladus, all plantscould grow if they were germinated and grown with pure water until each planthad a few leaves. However, growth rate can be suppressed compared with theplants cultivated with pure water. Because our first test was performed withloose conditions, more works are needed to evaluate the effect of Enceladus'water to plant growth. However, in addition to the works to grow plants onlunar and martian grounds, Enceladus' water may be used to consider propertiesof plant from wider environment.
