You haven't heard, because it's just plain stupid. Aircraft are designed to fly at an altitude of 10 km and speed of 900 km/h. They are almost airtight (cockpit dehermetization is one of the most common ways of disaster). Aircraft are designed to have a streamlined shape to minimize air resistance (to minimize fuel usage). At an altitude of 10 km it is -50 C and a fraction of the pressure of sea level, so after one flight your plants would freeze to death.

studiot Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 A further though occurred, The Earth has two fluid environments air, and water. Ther are plenty of free floating plants on/in the water environment, so the idea of a travelling plant is not silly. But the air is much thinner so perhaps only the free floating microorganisms that are plants are possible. Perhaps the biology specialists will advise further.
