Agnirva Space Premier League - Expedition #32536: Tomatosphere 6: Seeds That See the Stars

In Tomatosphere 6, thousands of tomato seeds ventured to the ISS, orbiting Earth in microgravity. Meanwhile, students on Earth eagerly awaited their return. Led by Dr. Michael Dixon and supported by CSA, this experiment engaged students in scientific thinking. By planting both space-exposed and ground-based seeds, they learned how spaceflight might impact plant development. It provided a fun, interactive way to explore the biology of space farming—crucial for future missions to Mars or lunar colonies.
