The tomato found by NASA astronaut Frank Rubio was kept in a bag but it floated away before he could taste it. Frank himself had given information about this. “I spent many hours trying to find that thing. I’m sure that tomato will show up and prove me right,” he said in September during a livestream event to mark one year since the unexpected.
