Food in Space
We Create Space Food
Unfortunately no one delivers pizza in space. It’s sad but true. If you want to grow up to be an astronaut someday, don’t do it for the food!
Eating in space presents unique challenges due to the absence of gravity. To overcome this, scientists have developed innovative methods for packaging and consuming food in space. One such method is freeze-drying, which has revolutionized space food.
Freeze-drying involves rapidly freezing food at extremely low temperatures and then dehydrating it. The result? Space food that doesn't require refrigeration, boasts an extended shelf life, and is incredibly easy to prepare.
Astronauts simply add water to re hydrate freeze-dried food, transforming it into delicious, nutritious meals. Some freeze-dried items, like fruit, can even be enjoyed as convenient, crunchy snacks.
But why freeze-drying? This process preserves essential minerals, enzymes, and nutrients while removing only water. Plus, it significantly reduces the weight of the food, making it an ideal choice for space travel.
At WAKI GO Freeze Dried Products, we take space food to a whole new level. Our selection includes a variety of tasty and nutritious options that astronauts rely on during their missions.
