TEXTO (MACKENZIE)

National 
Geographic Gastronauts
by Catherine L. Barker
Shrimp cocktail. Tortellini. Chocolate pudding cake! The International Space Station crew eats well, and soon they’ll have even more choices. In late 2008 Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata will blast off on Expedition 18 along with some delicacies devised by the Japan Aeros pace Exploration Agency for a test. His picks will later join the menu. Cooking space food is no small task – it must be shelf stable (no refrigerator up there), nutritious, and fit for zero gravity (salt and pepper are in liquid form as specks would float around). Food containers are fastened to trays. Astronauts sip liquids with a straw or dig into solids with forks and spoons. The new eats pose new issues. “For ramen,” says Wakata, “I would definitely like to use chopsticks.” (www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine)
