👀 While this hemp experiment in space is unique, it isn’t the first time cannabis has been sent off-planet. On June 1, 2013, Seed Hub and High Times used a weather balloon to send a joint, a small marijuana plant, and 95 seeds nearly 20 miles off the ground. That same year Dale Chamberlain, a former NASA botanist who helped build plant grow boxes for zero gravity, hinted to Motherboard that cannabis seeds may have been smuggled onto the ISS before. 🤔 @vice Ain't that something! They would rather grow marijuana in outer space than offer people of color access. 🤨 #StarWars #ActivateEMAP #EssentialNeeds #OnEarth @hightimesmagazine @elonmusk (at SpaceX) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA0ATSXhMU4/?igshid=hg2xo2sgvel7
