The Microscopic View Of Plant Roots Growing Is Mesmerizing

by Jeff DonlanA special camera will help scientists determine how to grow plants in space. The camera uses lasers and fluorescent lights to track the movements of plant roots that are invisible to the naked eye. Over several days, scientists watched the root tips grow and split in microscopic 3D detail. The research may help scientists understand how gravity affects plant growth.
