If you think your cooking is out of the world, NASA may have the perfect opportunity for you. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in collaboration with the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) has organised the ‘Deep Space Food Challenge’, the winners of which will walk away with a prize of USD 500,000 (approx Rs 3.62 crores).
So, what’s the catch here? The participants will be required to idealise meals that help feed astronauts on long-term space missions, by inventing new systems and technologies. Basically, they’re looky for easy-to-prep space food that hasn’t been freeze-dried and isn’t packaged.
Any road trip needs tasty snacks, and the same could be said for a mission speeding across deep space.
Your idea could help fuel astronauts on future long-duration missions. MORE on the Deep Space Food Challenge >> https://t.co/k9fxInP2dd pic.twitter.com/9SwX2p9CXf
