Phobos XXL

During the colonization of Mars at the beginning of the 22nd century, a group of scientists bioengineered a miraculous form of vegetation using minerals exclusively found on the moon Phobos. This living organism, named after the moon itself, thrived much like plants on Earth, thanks to the process of photosynthesis. Phobos would regularly shed layers of its skin, which, when exposed to the vacuum of space, solidified into a material stronger than metal, yet as translucent as glass, that could be used to shield harmful radiation.  Due to the absence of strong winds and bees within the living pods necessary to aid Phobos in the process of reproduction, scientists had to devise a radical solution. Phobos could reproduce with the assistance of humans, who would need to transfer pollen from one plant to another through copulation. In this process, Phobos would also benefit from the nutrients it extracted from the human body, effectively cleansing it of around 80% of its waste. This solution
