The silent cycle

Scientists are trying to grow vegetables in space as sending food with astronauts on a long haul is too expensive. Reminds me of Matt Demon's sci-fi film The Martian where he is stranded on a mission to Mars as fellow astronauts think he is dead and to survive, he experiments with growing potatoes, and they do fine- surprisingly. This is only speculative fiction, but fiction often comes to reality, if in some future date.
