2M is participating in the Tomatosphere project with the Canadian Space Agency.  We planted our seeds on Thrusday.   There were two packages of Heinz tomato seeds. One package of seeds is the control group. The second set of seeds has been exposed to a flight from Earth to the International Space Station, storage at the ISS, and a return flight on a USA shuttle. The seeds were taken to the ISS by CSA astronaut, Julie Payette, and the seeds remained on board for approximately two months.  Wow!  We planted both packages and are keeping track of which seeds grow first.  We won't know which package has been in space until the end of the project!  Check back to find out our results! http://www.tomatosphere.org/
