NASA and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Research Service signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that would allow USDA to conduct research on the ISS. USDA’s research project would study the biological cellular mechanisms of plants. This was the second MOU that NASA had signed with another federal agency; the first was a September 2007 agreement with the National Institutes of Health. NASA planned to promote the ISS as a national laboratory and to enter into future agreements with other government agencies, private sector research organizations, and universities.
