Cultivating vegetable in space

NASA is a famous name for their discovery of planets and space related discovery. But they are also known for many kind of uncommon discoveries. They are working for the betterment of the human being. Their discoveries have always been one of the most talked and interesting ones. They not only have a great effect on the Astrology but also other classes of the science.

From the beginning people have imagined to have another planet just like Earth. But it was not fulfilled. For this intention NASA wanted to take step initially. This time NASA has take step for cultivating vegetable in the space. Which may be a very good step for the human being as the population has gone out of the hands. If they can make this kind of project by which they can reduce the pressure from the Earth will be a handy project. As a result they have sent a rocket called SpaceX-3 with some saplings of vegetable. Reaching to the space station in 21st April the astronauts have started to cultivate vegetable in that rocket. This is a simple thought. In the rocket there is a box called PILO where the astronauts are trying to cultivate vegetables. PILO is a box made of glass which consist all the materials for a plant to grow. They have a system to water the plants and other necessary works for the plants. The name of this project is VEGGIE. At this moment it is the largest project for cultivating vegetable in space. This project is the beginning phase for the human being living in the space in future. Though we are many years back for the main target of the scientists. But we can think that it is so much possible that people will live in the space many years later from now. We are waiting for that day to come.
