I am also kind of curious about the idea of using mushrooms to saturate the regolith and turn it into soil as tey did thousands upon thousands of years on our planet. As much as I know, these are the guys which were responsible for the plant life and consequently animal life emerging from the oceans onto the land! Of course it would take much more time than we could probably afford to wait, but why not research this anyway

Deceptive and not entirely honest;
Fungal spores that grow inside the safety of a space station, are not _exposed to open space. _
Citation required: Please refer me to the peer reviewed papers, that have shown
that mushrooms have survived & thrived outside of any ship, in open space.

Mark Twain said, Name of all the greatest inventors. Accident. Same is here with us how we interacted with fungi at first step in space and now what potention they may behold for us.
Just Fascinating!

So now Colonialism spreads non-native species into space Perhaps Colonialists are native to some other planet, like the last one they laid waste to as an intergalactic locust swarm.

considering fungi were the first flora to blanket landmasses and evolved into the 1st trees, I would say their the perfect candidates to use on a barren alien rock.

This feels like the pitch for the: biggest let down of Space horror movie.
We have fungus growing everywhere, What do we do (Then they astronauts just end up cleaning)

Very interesting! Though I wouldn’t trust a habitat made of fungus, but I’m not an astronaut so I don’t think NASA is worried about my opinions

That's only one option. It would be earth shattering news once one solution suddenly stopped working that made most of your infrastructure.

I will live in a cyborg body someday, in a fungus home, on another planet. This I swear to the universe. WITNESS ME, UNIVERSE! WITNESS ME!

Fungi, the unsung heroes of space exploration! Forget rocket science, let's grow our own space habitats. Out-of-this-world innovation!

wow, this space mushroom stuff, sounds like a cross between travel to the center of the earth and trip to the moon to me.

Amazing. Mushrooms are truly one of the apex life forms of our planet. I feel like it's Mushrooms, us, and trees, in that order

Why did the mushroom go to space.
To find out if it could truly be a fun-gi to be with in the universe! Yes!
