Eroo ab: Food is incredibly important. We need to consider how are we going to solve this in a way that supports our crew's health an performance. I think if we could put a man on the moon, and if we can call the number one restaurant in the world a restaurant that serves ant paste, then i kind of think we could maybe attack some of these problems we talked of. And so much of what we discussed regarding food is not food that separates us. It's food that brings together. The fact that the different countries on the international space station swhat the eye stands for, is international will come together and shear food because we all eat multiple times a day.
How good is food in space? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Jordan Klepper feast on food science and the challenges we face sending food to space with chef Alton Brown, food chemist Dr. Arielle Johnson and NASA food scientist Dr. Grace Douglas.
