 In vitro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In vitro (Latin: "within glass") is an experimental technique where the experiment is performed in a test tube, or generally outside a living organism or cell.
Alternatives of in vitro include in vivo and in silico: within an organism, and computational, respectively.
Many experiments that deal with molecular biology are conducted outside organisms or cells, where the conditions and therefore results may not represent those inside the cell.

 The Maneater - Vegetarians should support in-vitro meat
In-vitro meat would probably cost more, but if restaurants and grocery stores started stocking their shelves full of a healthier product that tastes the same, it might take off.
Although abandoning meat altogether would have a greater impact, it is even less likely to happen than replacing it with in-vitro meat.
Availability, taste, cost, name and tradition are all factors that fuel the meat industry the way it is. In-vitro meat could possibly slide by without anyone noticing, something the Gardenburger couldn’t do, and man would unintentionally be taking a step in the right direction as far as treatment of animals are concerned.

 Abolitionist-Online - A Voice for Animal Rights
Similarly, even if in vitro meat production that did not involve any non-human animals or their exploitation were developed in the future and the consumption of this meat resulted in the lives of non-human animals being saved, this good end would not be justified by the immoral means of vivisection.
Recall the example of the racist lamp collector who acquires the necessary skin from a donating relative and consider; the consumer of in vitro meat, through her or his actions, is expressing the idea or sentiment that current or past institutionalised exploitation and oppression of non-human animals is acceptable.
Conversely, in the case of in vitro meat production in a world in which veganism is an option, the weaker moral repugnancy is not overridden; the taste enjoyment of a human animal who eats meat is a trivial benefit compared to the saving of someone’s life.

If we, as animal advocates, promote in vitro meat and succeed in replacing all processed meats with it, the amount of animals prevented from suffering should more than make up for any impression we might give to people that meat is good.
Also known as cultured or laboratory-grown meat, in vitro (“within glass”) meat is produced in a cell culture, rather than from an animal.
If successful, the impact of in vitro meat on the environment alone could be enormous, reducing the greenhouse gases and methane generated by industrial animal agriculture.

 The Hindu : Sci Tech / Speaking Of Science : Making meat in vitro from cells
Also, some might argue, rightly, that there is only a degree of difference between making meat in vitro from muscle cells, and making it from the egg cell (as animals do, in vivo or ex vivo).
Matheny is also quoted as saying "cultured meat could appeal to people concerned about food safety, the environment, and animal welfare, and people who want to tailor food to their tastes".
Secondly, even on earth, doing it in vitro means that one does not have to raise livestock, care for them and suffer the pollution they create.

I suspect that, for a few generations at least, farm-raised meat will be a luxury item for folks who insist there's a difference, but that everyone else will gladly move to in-vitro meat.
These things are probably a pretty long way off, especially as in-vitro meat currently runs someplace in the neighborhood of $5 millon a kilogram.

The thought of beef grown in the lab may turn your stomach, but in vitro meat would avoid many of the downsides of factory farming, most notably pollution: in the United States, livestock produce 1.4 billion tons of waste each year.
