About this work
Inside the Microbiology Lab at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Oct. 6, 2021, microbiologists work with frozen lettuce samples that recently returned from the International Space Station as part of NASA’s SpaceX 23rd commercial resupply services mission. The experiment, titled VEG-03J, involved “Outredgeous” red romaine lettuce grown in the Veggie Production System (Veggie) on the space station and demonstrated a new way of storing, handling, and planting seeds in space.
