CCP Crew-13 Astronauts Tour Plant Processing Area

NASA astronaut Luke Delaney (front), along with CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Joshua Kutryk, NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Stan Love, Project Scientist Natasha Haveman, and Trent Smith, a senior leader of the NASA Kennedy Space Crop Production team, view microgreens at the Plant Processing Area inside the Space Systems Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Tuesday, May 12, 2026. Watkins, Delaney, Kutryk, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov (not pictured) are part of NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 mission to the International Space Station and will explore the possibility of growing crops outside of the station’s Veggie chamber – one of two enclosed areas currently used to grow crops on the orbiting laboratory.
