NASA Lost Moon Trees Scattered Around the World 

Thanks to you and a few others I learn something new every day when I watch RU-vid videos. A good thing for me at 74. Thanks Dark Skies!

Your channels come up with the most abstract and interesting topics…you never, ever disappoint!

Only you guys can make a doc about trees gripping. 👏

Excellent video and information. Thank you again 😊

Loved the ambiance on this video! Well done!

Thankypu for still cranking out so much content... but have we seen this one before?

I found one that's an hour away from me. I'll be driving past it next weekend, and will be sure to pay it a visit. I can't believe I hadn't heard about this before!

There's one at the University of Arizona I've seen, it's just off to the side of one of the space science buildings with nothing more than a humble plaque to mark it's significance

Nice story, very nice delivery, thank you.

I read about the germination experiments on the International Space Station, and I realized that in the end nature always wins ... even without gravity the roots know what to do ... to live and live. This should suggest to us that the things we can do may go beyond what we can now imagine.

Just when I think I knew everything the space programs did…. Moon trees!

I remember when the seeds went up and came back. After their return I can recall that they were going to be distributed and planted and wondered what they would be like when they were all grown up. It seems that they are perfectly normal. I didn't know that they were called Moon Trees though. Great story. I never knew what happened to them.

Keeping politics out of these ventures is the hardest obstacle......Plants like animals find a way to survive. Great info I had no idea about the program.

Thank you. A very interesting video. I watched all the Apollo flights. This brings back memories I have long forgotten.

I’ve had space salsa! There was a satellite program that sent a bunch of tomato seeds and other veggies into orbit. When the seeds were eventually returned they were given out to much of places. Including the science museum I volunteered at as a kid. They grew the tomatoes and eventually were made into a home made salsa we had at a museum party. I need to look it up sometime. I had forgotten all about that until I saw this video.

I was just a kid when Apollo 14 lifted off and I had no idea about the trees thank you

That background music made it that much more prolific. Moon Trees

Some of the trees were supposed to have been planted at the Space And Rocket Center in Huntsville. Years ago I looked for them but couldn't determine if they still exist. I used to work there so I had spent some time looking but I think the area they were planted was redone by landscaping.

Cool. I remember in jr high and high school reading about moon trees.

In 1976 a cutting from an original Moon Tree was planted at the Monmouth County Courthouse in NJ.

There’s one at the Asheville NC Botanical Garden.

Brilliant, I heard I mentioned before , but it’s nice to get the details

I would definitely be interested in purchasing the offspring (seeds) after quarantine.

Shepard didn’t actually play golf. He hit a golf ball “for miles and miles.”

Two trees are in Tennessee. One is at the University of the South. The other is a UTK AG. He wasn't asked. He was a former fire jumper who took them voluntarily.

I lived in a town next to Monterey, and used to see the Moon tree there all the time.

Pretty cool in my book !!

Can you please do a video on objects astronauts took to space and what they may have sold them for? @darkdocs

There is a Redwood moon tree growing where I work, my company supplied the Redwood seed. There are another half dozen at Humboldt State university.

I never knew that they took seeds from trees to the moon. I wonder what else they have brought in outer space or grown. I wonder if they ever brought plants to grow on the space station. I think that would be a interesting topic to cover. Thank you for making great uploads like this.

We have a moon tree in my town but it was struck by lightning a few years back and has since rotted and is barely alive. Town council is holding a vote soon to have it removed or not.

That’s neat. There’s one like 75 miles from me.

Hundreds of moon trees and nobody thought to make a list of where they were? Not smart.

FLASHFORWARD: 2022 news: "Moon trees leave dormant stage, begin conquest of the Earth." I for one welcome our new arborian overlords.

There is a loblolly pine moon tree in the city where I live. My goal is to try to get some seeds and bonsai it come spring. Such a cool legacy.

There may be one on the isle of man in a town called Peel. Have a look if you want!

I like trees. I like the moon. I like this video.

I have been to the one in Florida. It's in the downtown portion of the small town I lived in for 3 years.

It would have been more impressive if they planted the trees on the moon🌜🌲👍😎

One is in Corvallis Oregon

It's too bad the samples were contaminated by the decontamination process.

'The second round of tests proved much more successful as they were overseen by expert plant scientists' Botanists.

What ever happened to the honey bee experiments conducted during the space shuttle era? I think Utah State University was involved.

Huge fan of the channel, but for the love of god could we have less big red arrows and more big red circles?

We need to repeat this experiment with the seeds, over and over again. Maybe use other seeds even.

If one of those trees die it would be nice to build a table or doors out of it

There’s a moon tree in front of the courthouse in Freehold, New Jersey.

And another banger.

6:25 - 10,000 geniuses at NASA and nobody could just write down where these Moon Trees went?

he should have planted some seeds on moon and this is that same good space music from that other video

I was at Kings Dominion in Virginia a couple of weeks ago and while walking around the Eiffel Tower I just so happened to see a sign next to a tree that said it had been to the moon and back.

How can they be an memorial if no body know where they are!

Why ever didn't they collect some MOONDUST/SOIL into which to plant the tree seeds and then return the pots with planted seeds to Earth to see if the plants would germinate and grow on in the substraight from the Moon?

I watch another DARK documentary on RU-vid, and eat potato chips at the same time. DARK channels is love, DARK channels is life. 👨🏻‍🚀

Very interesting, thanks for the info. 👍

Ground control guy smoking in the command center!😂🚬🚭

“Old Age” for a redwood??? There are several at Humboldt State University. Behind the Natural Resources Building. And Behind Founders Hall. Go Jacks!!!

One is planted in Durango colorado

I've never heard of these moon trees before. I do have some experience with moon pies though. 🥧 tasty

Trees in space

u shoulder cover every Apollo mission in order! at least the ones u haven't covered yet!??!!

Hope they did not mutate into cannibalistic trees ... ! 🤔😉

i'm sure the moon trees here in california are long gone. burned twice over

Thanks very...Much...!

We got one at the University of Florida campus

The moon trees are insignificant next to the power of the force.

You know, if the world worked on comic book science, we'd be dead or slaves to mutant trees right now...

Redwoods grow for thousands of years. They are nowhere near fully grown, lab coat guy.

Pretty cool program.

We should do this again but with cannabis seeds, we could sell it as moon weed.

I have one of these trees in a park in my city

so the radiation from space did nothing to the seeds of note? so it was a waste of everybody's effing time. i see.

Lol they lost the seeds and locals where like "oh yea theyre here"

Wouldn't it be incredible to have a moon tree planted in your back yard?

When men were men and fire fighters actually fought fires instead of running from them like they do nowadays.

so what "SIMPLE BUT MEANIGHFULL" way does 'taking some seeds FROM HERE all the way to THE MOON and BACK AGAIN and planting them to grow here WHERE THEY CAME FROM' connect to WHAT????????? it's LOST ON ME sorry 🤷‍♂️😶... if we FOUND SEEDS ON THE MOON... and grew them HERE... !! WELL then ya have something rite???

It's pronounced (Pla-cer) not (play-sir)

We never went to the moon.

A Moon Tree for the Emperor of Japan? Cmon Hahahahahaha

he died aged 61

*Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.*

I swear I saw a documentary...stating those "moon trees" were FAKE!💯 The King of Denmark had it tested and it was a regular tree!😂😂🎄or maybe moon rock! It had no moon dust on it or anything!!💯

They need to plant a seed on the moon

The Artemis project my son's name is Artemis and he is 7 years old Maybe hes going to space

5:28 Look at the face masks they’re wearing. Meanwhile some adults can’t be asked to wear a simple cloth face mask while grocery shopping without throwing a damn hissy fit. They really are embarrassing.

Terrible narrator. I had to slow the video speed down to understand him.

Bit flip abort abort deep fried popcorn these people have the bends if you think we can go into space let alone the moon blood will bubble.
