Harvesting cotton sprouted in space
Harvesting cotton which has been sprouted in space, Russia, 1986. Scientists are interested in the ability of plants to grow in a weightless environment. Not only does the absence of gravity help to illuminate some of their biological processes, but knowledge of growing crops in space will also be important if people are to live for a long time without assistance in space

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Russia in 1986, where scientists were exploring the fascinating realm of space agriculture. The image showcases a male scientist meticulously harvesting cotton that had been sprouted in the weightless environment of space. This groundbreaking experiment aimed to unravel the mysteries surrounding plant growth without gravity's influence. The absence of gravity not only shed light on some intriguing biological processes but also held great significance for future space exploration. As humans aspire to venture deeper into outer space and potentially live autonomously, understanding how to cultivate crops becomes paramount. This historical snapshot serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and our unyielding determination to conquer new frontiers. The photo exudes an air of scientific curiosity, with the scientist engrossed in his work inside a green house specially designed for this unique endeavor. His Caucasian features reflect the diverse team of biologists and researchers who collaborated on this project under the Soviet Union's banner. As we delve into this remarkable piece from Science Photo Library, it is impossible not to appreciate its historical value within agricultural science and its implications for future generations living beyond Earth's boundaries.
