The book investigates the potential of growing crops in space through hydroponics and aeroponics. It also covers advanced technologies for recycling food waste, water, and even human waste into usable resources. Further, the book examines novel food technologies, like 3D-printed food and cultured meat, assessing their feasibility and acceptability for space missions. These solutions aim to reduce dependence on Earth-based resources, creating self-sustaining ecosystems for long-term space habitation.
Structured to provide a comprehensive overview, Food in Space begins by introducing the fundamental challenges of space nutrition, then progresses through sections on space farming, nutrient recycling, and food innovations. The book uses data from NASA experiments, scientific studies, and engineering reports to support its arguments, offering a unique perspective on integrating multiple technologies for sustainable food systems.
