Yitong Xia/Handout via REUTERS Acquire Licensing Rights WASHINGTON, Nov 9 (Reuters) - If humankind is ever to establish long-term bases on the moon, there will be a need for a regular source of food. It is not practical, however, to think you can plant corn or wheat in plain lunar soil in greenhouses on the moon and expect a bumper crop - or any crop at all. But scientists are taking steps toward making moon agriculture a real possibility. Researchers said on Thursday they have found a way to turn inhospitable lunar soil fertile by introducing bacteria that enhance the availability of phosphorus, an important plant nutrient.

Movie, Nintendo announced Wednesday that it’s working on a live-action adaptation of The Legend of Zelda. The video game developer said that although it “will take time” until the movie hits theaters, it will be helmed by Maze Runner director Wes Ball and be cofinanced by Sony. The news sent gamers on a dream-casting spree and signaled the next big step in Nintendo’s quest to evolve from a video game company into a full-blown entertainment empire. The Legend of Zelda is one of Nintendo’s oldest and most beloved franchises, where a silent, twinky hero named Link battles the forces of evil (usually a maladjusted guy named Gannon/dorf) with the help of princess Zelda. The company made the first game in the series in 1986 and has since released dozens more, including this year’s critically acclaimed The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The franchise is one of Nintendo’s heavy hitters, a series where each game is highly anticipated and commonly commercially successful. Tears of the Kingdom has sold 19.5 million copies since May. Nintendo’s bet on a film adaptation of the series is part of its expansion into the greater entertainment world. Earlier this year, the company hit gold with The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which eventually surpassed Frozen as the second-highest-grossing animated movie of all time. Beautifully animated, packed with stars like Chris Pratt and Jack Black, and an incredibly appealing commercial for the developer’s games, the Mario movie proved that, alongside darker fare like The Last of Us, adaptations of video game franchises aren’t the worst idea in the world.
