In November 2008, 265 pits collected from various cherry trees from 14 locations across Japan, were sent to the International Space Station. The endeavor was part of an educational and cultural project to demonstrate to kids, how seeds can continue to live and grow, even after a jaunt to space. The seeds that circled the globe 4,100 times during their four-month mission, returned to earth in March 2009. While some were kept for lab tests most, were returned to their original locations.

        "Biology" = Botany Pretty close. Great! I'm going to become an entomologist, which is a kind of biologist who goes there right on the spot to study the animals instead of staying in some boring lab.

            Yeah, I guess it's cool, although I was looking for more of an astronomy article. It was most likely that the trees where exposed to the cosmic rays, and that caused them to bloom earlier. Alex 7th grade
