A photograph taken on the International Space Station. Astronaut Kate Rubins is on the left, floating next to a complicated and colourful contraption. It has two rectangular reservoirs, one above the other, both filled with a red-orange liquid. They are connected via clear plastic tubes filled with the same liquid. Two felt-like ovals are 'growing' out of each reservoir, as fake plants. To one side there's a large syringe for injecting more coloured water, and everything is connected to a control box at the bottom, which I think is a pump.

This photo shows NASA astronaut Kate Rubins with the Plant Water Management (PWM) apparatus in March 2021. Image credit: NASA

The PWM experiments are exploring different ways to water plants in space.
