NASA found a stray, space-grown tomato that went missing for 8 months, clearing the astronaut they all thought ate it

• A long-lost space tomato has finally been found on the International Space Station.
• When Frank Rubio's tomato floated away from him earlier this year, his colleagues joked that he had actually eaten it.
• The tomato was grown as part of a NASA project to study how plants grow in microgravity. 

An 8-month-long space mystery has been solved.

NASA astronauts on the International Space Station finally found a stray, space-grown tomato eight months after it first went missing.

And no one's probably happier than Frank Rubio, the astronaut that the crew thought had eaten it.
