Material harvested from asteroids could be used to sustain astronauts during long-duration space missions.

NASA astronaut Kate Rubins harvested fresh radishes grown in space, opening new doors for producing food in microgravity to sustain future longer-term missions to the moon and Mars.

Spaceflight causes changes in astronauts' brain structure and function during extended missions, a new study shows.

For freshly grown produce, space is truly the final frontier.

The cosmos may be be breathtakingly beautiful, but it's also deadly to human explorers.

Lung tissue samples grown on the International Space Station, which have just arrived back on Earth, could help researchers understand how space travel affects breathing.
