A new world for fluorescence testing
Light inside living organisms
Emmett W. Chappelle's accomplishments benifited the world because Chappelle's research brought safe and breathable air for astronauts. He found out that sending astronauts with plants into space can minimize poisoning from carbon monoxide. Chappelle invented the ATP fluorescent assay that allows us to detect plants from other planets like mars. The accomplishments Chappelle has will help discover new things and potentially expand life for humans. If it wasn't for Chappelle, astronauts would not be safe and have air to breath.
Chappelle got the NASA's Exceptional Scientific Achievement Medal in 1994
When Chappelle retired from NASA, he held 14 patents and was inducted into the National Inventor's Hall of Fame for his work on fluorescence in organisms.
