NASA plans to grow plants on the moon for the first time

by Laura Domela

For the first time in history, NASA would be sending seeds on a space mission in an attempt to grow them on the Moon.

Set to launch in 2015 as part of the commercial Moon Express lander project, this futuristic experiment would be delivering turnip, cress and basil seeds in specially constructed canisters, known as “Lunar Plant Growth Chambers”, to be planted on the Moon.
