Chinese astronauts have successfully harvested the first rice crop grown in space aboard the Tiangong space station. The achievement is an important step toward growing food for future missions to the Moon, Mars and other deep-space destinations.
The rice seeds were taken to space on the Shenzhou-23 mission in May. After more than two months, astronauts collected the crop and stored samples for further research.
Scientists are studying how rice grows in microgravity and whether it can be cultivated over multiple generations in space. The goal is to make future long-term space missions less dependent on food supplies from Earth.

Supporters call it a strategic investment in US security and Arctic influence. Critics argue the Coast Guard never requested a fleet this large and warn the long-term costs could stretch far beyond the initial price tag.
