Description

Let's talk space food!

As NASA prepares to send astronauts into space for years to reach far-flung places like Mars, one of the biggest challenges will be feeding them. Prepackaged meals-ready-to-eat won't cut it for years in space as astronauts will need to find ways to create fresh food that provides the balance nutrition required for long-term health and productivity in the most challenging of work environments.

To talk about the current state of space food and where it's going in the future, our guests for this show include:

-Anjan Contractor, CEO of BeeHex - BeeHex created a 3D pizza printer for NASA

-Dane Gobel - the operations administrator for the Deep Space Food Challenge, a NASA Centennial challenge to find innovative new ways to feed space travelers.
