Extraterrestrial Crops
It turns out Earth isn't the only celestial body with life. During your travels, you may come across other kinds of edible flora. These all use the same mechanics you're used to on Earth (with some exceptions), and can be grown either in normal Farmland, in a Firmalife Greenhouse, or in a GregTech Electric Greenhouse depending on your needs.
An Air Distributor will also keep an enclosed area a stable 15 °C. Due to technical reasons, this temperature can't be displayed in the Jade tooltip while on other planets, so you'll have to use your inventory's Climate tab to check the temperature.
Another alternative is to use Firmalife's Greenhouse, which doesn't provide as much output, but also ignores all climate conditions.
Chorus Fruit
Location: The Moon
Biomes: Chorus Forest, Chorus Thicket
Chorus Plants grow in tall formations. Breaking the stem will yield nothing, while breaking the Flowers at the top will yield Chorus Fruits or a Flower.
Chorus Fruits can be eaten for Fruit, cooked and eaten as Popped Chorus Fruit, or can be distilled into Nitrogen.
Chorus Flowers can also be grown manually by planting them on any Gravel or Sand.
