Cant read it, whats the article about?

[โ€“] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

the lead researcher thinks that cannabis is a hearty and resistant plant. it's ability to adapt makes it a great research subject. they singled out a specific species and want to see how the seeds act after being in space. they are hoping it could grow in zero g with only artificial light, since it's clear that it can grow in artificial light.

but ultimately the lead researcher wants to smoke weed grown from cosmic radiation. dudes lifelong ambition is Martian Weed.

Gotta love his ambition.
