Chinese to Create Mutant Space Seeds!

You heard me, the Chinese intend to send a satellite into orbit with a special lab that will expose the unprotected seeds to magnetic fields, radiation, high vacuum and micro-gravity, to create mutant defects.
They hope the mutant seeds will then be used to create high-yield crops here on earth.
That second sentence makes the whole thing a lot less scary, doesn't it? It's not the first time it's been done. NASA does it quite regularly. A Colorado company called Aeroponics International has done it. They've even done it in Indianola, Ia.
Just sounds scarier to put it in a headline and add an exclamation point, I guess.
