Space has unlimited resources, basically, justas you just need access to it. And i think that's true cross nassa. A lot of the things that we're doing, and the fact that we're trying everything we make, we have to figure out how to do it with less resources. The goal would be self sustain ability and earth. To get there, you need be looking at these other things and proving them out. We need to show on the lunar surface and then on the mars surface, that these things are working and we can depend on them.
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.
