NASA’s ‘Moon Trees’ have roots in Oregon forest fire

About this episode

Astronaut Stuart Roosa had a special relationship with the U.S. Forest Service, and when it was his turn to go to the moon, he proposed a science experiment. You can see the results towering over Peavy Hall at Oregon State University today.
