China is growing cotton on Moon

Hello Steemians,

Today there is an update for you all. I hope you heard that china was successful in germinating a cotton seed in moon.Yeah, it's 100% true. China really did a good job to make a successful germination in moon. I hope that soon we will wear clothes made up with the cotton that will be grown on moon. China always tries to beat their competitors in the field of rates. China's product are purchased on a high quantity because their rates are very low but quality of that product cannot be guaranteed. Okay, let's go back to our topic. In this picture, you can see that the sprout has emerged inside a canister since the Chang'e-4 lander set down on the moon's surface earlier this month.

We all know about the space war continuously going on between the countries like America, India, China etc is moving to a champ level day-by-day. Today, I heard that China has successfully grown a cotton plant on moon. So, let's go deep into it and explore what happened on the moon. I have a video to clear all your doubts. Take a look at it.

China sent several seeds to Moon in its spacecraft Chang’e-4, and cotton was the only seed to germinate so far.
A cotton seed carried to the Moon by China’s recent Chang’e-4 probe has sprouted, the first for any biological matter to grow on the Moon.

Images sent back by the probe showed that a cotton sprout had grown well, though no other plant was found growing, the Xinhua news agency reported.

On January 3, China’s robotic spacecraft Chang’e-4 landed on the far side of the moon, a first in the human history of space exploration.

The 1.3-tonne lander, which made a soft landing on the Moon, carried the seeds of cotton, oilseed , potato and arabidopsis, as well as eggs of the fruit fly and some yeast, to form a simple mini biosphere, according to a team led by scientists from Chongqing University in southwest China.

Plants have been grown on the International Space Station before but never on the Moon.

The ability to grow plants on the Moon will be integral for long-term space missions, like a trip to Mars which would take about two-and-a-half years.

It would mean that astronauts could potentially harvest their own food in space, reducing the need to come back down to Earth to re-supply, the BBC reported.

The plants are kept in a sealed container on board the Chang’e-4 lander. The crops will try to form a mini biosphere — an artificial, self-sustaining environment.

The lunar mini biosphere experiment on the lander is designed to test photosynthesis and respiration — processes in living organisms that result in the production of energy.

The whole experiment is contained within an 18 cm tall, 3 kg canister that was designed by 28 Chinese universities, the BBC said.

I hope to spend my holidays soon on moon with my girlfriend.

So, what's your opinion about this experiment happened on moon?And how far can we go in space devlopement?
