| Norway to grow food crops in space |
| 2014-11-22 |
 The Trondheim research unit has been trying to grow plants in space since 2006. Under theDamn Norwegian research team's guidance, plant growing experiments were carried out at the International Space Station (ISS). The research focused on the flowering weed, thaliana.
