For one thing they make oxygen. and you can eat them as well not to mention the psychological benefits that the sight of greenery may have on the people working in the alien environment of space.

There are currently a variety of plants being grown in space as part of various space missions and experiments. These plants are used to study plant growth in microgravity, provide food for astronauts, and help with air purification in spacecraft. NASA has also successfully grown and harvested various crops like lettuce and radishes on the International Space Station.
The International Space Station (ISS) is currently the only operational space station in orbit. It serves as a collaborative effort between several countries for scientific research and technological advancements in space.
The International Space Station was not finished at a specific point in time. Construction of the ISS began in 1998 and has been ongoing, with modules continuously being added and replaced to expand and maintain the station.
Yes, plants can grow on a permanent space station with the help of controlled environments like hydroponics or aeroponics. These systems provide necessary nutrients, water, and light for plant growth, making it possible to cultivate plants in space for food and oxygen production.

The International Space Station (ISS) is a space station currently being constructed in orbit around Earth. Construction began in 1998 and is expected to be completed in 2011. It is being built and occupied by many nations at one time, hence the name International Space Station.
Some examples of experiments conducted on the International Space Station include studying the effects of microgravity on the human body, growing plants in space to understand how they adapt, researching new materials and their properties in a space environment, and investigating the behavior of fluids and combustion in microgravity.
If there were no Sun, and no other source of radiant energy, the plants (and the entire planet) would quickly freeze. And since the color of an object is determined by the color of the light that is reflected by the object, with no light there would be no color, and everything would be black. If we grow plants under artificial light on a space station, then the light on the space station (even if artificial) would be the same kinds of light that we humans prefer, so the plants on the space station would continue to be green.
A space station
No, the Salut 1 was not the first space station. The first space station was the Soviet space station Salyut 1, which was launched in 1971.
A space station is a satellite.
