US astronaut Scott Kelly tweeted a photograph of an orange zinnia, which has flowered on the International Space Station.

‘The flower was grown by NASA to help scientists understand how plants and flower grow in microgravity. The success of the flower's growth suggests that scientists have the potential to grow more plants in space.’

Kelly posted the images on his Twitter account using the hashtag #Spaceflower, '#SpaceFlower out in the sun for the first time! #YearInSpace'.
