NASA flight engineers have successfully harvested 20 radishes grown in the advanced plant culture environment on the International Space Station and wrapped them in tin foil so they can be refrigerated and returned to Earth next year. Turnips are the latest fresh produce to be successfully grown and harvested in zero gravity, according to a NASA fact sheet. Astronauts have grown 15 plants on the Iss, including eight green leafy plants.
