'Join the Deep Space Food Challenge to help bring innovative food production technologies to space and here on Earth.

Unless you’re on the Moon. Or flying in space. Right now, astronauts aboard the Space Station get food thanks to spacecraft regularly launching from Earth. But future astronauts on a trip to Mars will spend years away from our planet. That means no quick trips to the grocery store or cargo ships bringing supplies. They’ll have to bring just about everything they need with them. Is that even feasible? To boldly go where no human has gone before, we have to invent food production systems that can be used in space. These new solutions could also improve our food systems on Earth. They might even help us reduce food insecurity on our planet. That’s why NASA and the Canadian Space Agency are launching the Deep Space Food Challenge. Participants can win prize money for their ideas on how to keep our astronauts fed on future space exploration missions. We believe you can make it happen. Go to deepspacefoodchallenge.org and get involved today.'See also:
