Abstract:
Plants in space are plants grown in outer space. In the context of human spaceflight, they can be used for food and refreshing the atmosphere. Plants can scrub carbon dioxide and return oxygen, as well as adjust humidity. Plants can be grown in a space garden. Aspects include how plants grow without gravity, and different types of lighting. Growing plants in space may provide a psychological benefit to human spaceflight crews.
