Australian scientists now aim to plant trees on the moon by 2025.
This study is expected to help in developing settlements or colonies on the Moon or in space in the future. Through the mission, the seeds will be brought to the Moon, and then they will be stored and monitored through a special container on the Moon.
Initial studies will focus on the germination and growth of the seeds. For now, the tree or plant that will be chosen has not yet been determined - but one that is being talked about is Australian grass that can survive extreme weather without water.
Apart from that, this study is also expected to allow scientists to understand more deeply to ensure that trees grow in extreme conditions on Earth - especially during recent climate changes.
