Register online to participate in the NASA Engineering Design Challenge: Lunar Plant Growth Chamber. Students in grades K-12 will design, analyze, build and assess plant growth chambers that could be used on the moon. Registrants will receive a packet of cinnamon basil seeds that flew on the STS-118 space shuttle mission and a control packet of seeds that have not flown. The two sets of seeds will be used to evaluate the student-designed plant growth chamber. Sign up for the NASA Express listserv to receive e-mail messages about the challenge, updates to the challenge Web site and announcements about NASA education activities.
