WASHINGTON -- NASA is planning to grow plants and vegetables - such as turnip and basil - on the Moon, by 2015, to understand whether humans can live and work on the Earth's natural satellite.
The US space agency will deposit plants, on-board a commercial lunar lander, on the Moon's surface within the next two years, NASA said.
The initiative is being driven by the Lunar Plant Growth Habitat team.
