Space-Bound Veggies Will Also Sprout in White House Garden

A new batch of green-vegetable seeds launched to the International Space Station Friday (April 8) as part of an experiment to grow produce in space. Meanwhile, seeds from the same lot are taking root in Michelle Obama's White House kitchen garden. The seeds are part of Veg-03, the third crop of plants to be grown in the station's Vegetable Production System (Veggie).
