Basil Seed Kits

The ºÚÁÏ´óÊÂ¼Ç launched a set of basil seeds on a high-altitude balloon that went above the Armstrong limit.  This is the limit where there is no physiological difference between that point and space. The seeds experienced extreme pressure and temperature differences and higher doses of radiation. Kit includes a set of space-flown seeds and a control of non-flown seeds.  Students will grow these seeds in the classroom to see if there is a difference between germination rates. Excellent introduction to experimentation, variables, collecting/analyzing data, and sample sizes.
