While human dreams of living in colonies by moving to other planets in space are still in development, many researches are still being carried out to help this matter. The question of how people will grow crops in places that are not suitable for agriculture is one of the most curious questions. At this point, astronauts working at the International Space Station (ISS) for a long time are entering. Another research has been successfully completed at the International Space Station, where many researches have been conducted for humanity. Astronauts managed to grow a lettuce type in the station. Lettuce was bred at the space station: Astronauts at ISS grew red curly lettuce that does not contain any microbes and is as safe as food on Earth. Grown red curly lettuce is the hardest place to grow; it grew under very low gravity and more intense radiation than Earth. This success of astronauts in ISS will provide them with a normal nutrient as well as providing potassium, K, B1 and C vitamins. Such nutrient content is very low in ready-made foods given to astronauts, and this amount decreases even more over time. Of course, let’s not go without saying that the new research paves the way for growing plants in a spacecraft. Such a possibility will be very useful during the long journeys of astronauts in the coming years. Artemis III missions and NASA’s first manned Mars mission could benefit from this research. ISS acts as a small test board for all future tasks. Every research conducted or carried out here is a solution to many problems of humanity from simple to difficult. Even if the researches at ISS fail, at least in which situation it will be learned.
