Moon Fact Monday is back! Did you know that more than 400 trees on Earth came from the moon? Or from lunar orbit! In 1971, Apollo 14 astronaut Stuart Roosa took a bunch of seeds with him & later the seeds were germinated on Earth & planted in various spots. Most are doing fine!
Have a great Sunday and weekend!
