‘SPACE FLOWER’ 🌼
NASA on Tuesday shared a beautiful photo of the zinnia flower as seen from their space garden, as part of the Veggie facility aboard the International Space Station.
“Our space garden isn't just for show: learning how plants develop in orbit will help us understand how to grow crops off the Earth, providing a valuable source of fresh food on long-term missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond,” NASA wrote. (Instagram/NASA)
