Tomatoes in space

Tomato in space

There appears to be a tomato flying 4.791 miles per second, 230 miles above our heads which is probably a first.  If you are wondering how it go there…

Astronaut Koichi Wakata has the answer: "One fresh tomato for dinner makes us happy in space. It came up with us on Soyuz TMA-11M two weeks ago." I wish I could have tomato salads in space too.

Given it costs $20,000 – $30,000 to send stuff up to the International Space Station sure this would be the most expensive tomato as well.
