Thoughts on the food the astronauts will be eating on the 10 day mission?
I could go for some space cake.
Someone actually believes they went to "space"?
>43 coffees for 10 daysdamn that seems light
cauliflower and hot sauce with Chocolate Breakfast Drink®
>>21960946Sweet sour salty bitter and umami. A perfect asssmblage of flavors.
>>21960919you should kill yourself as soon as possible>>21960845wonder how good the brisket is
>>21960943You need more than one cup of coffee a day?
Do they use a microwave for some of this stuff?Imagine microwaving your lunch and some scientist on earth detects it and thinks it could be aliens.
>>21960966They rehydrate it with hot water.
>>21960966you need to retake highschool physics. a microwave or, hell, 1000 of them combined wouldnt be detectable on earth from such a distance
>>21960958yeah i guess not
>>21960845They're obligated to put the word "space" in front of every one of these menu items. I am disappointed and want them to fix it.
>going to the bathroom in space involves shoving a big vacuum tube up your butt and sucking the poop out by forceI don't think i want to go to space anymore bros
>>21961017forgot the pic. the space butt hole vacuum.
>>21961017>>21961018>the fan is so loud that you need to wear hearing protection to use it.
>>21961017artificial gravity soon surelyi'm sure nobody will use this as a weapon
>>21960845>189 unique menu itemswhat, do they have a burger king truck following them?
>>21960845I’ll have the barbecued beef brisket with spicy green beans and an apple cider.
>>21960845>No chili Mac
Were people this gay about astronaut food during the Apollo mission
>>21961304Of course not because space paste is the superior and accepted form of space food.
>>21961304The Apollo crews survived off Scotch and Tang
>>21961340Yeah, somehow space food like a "Mango-Peach Smoothie" and "Mango Salad" doesn't exactly seem like the right stuff.
>>21960982that's what I fucking thought
>>21960943>4 crew>10 days>43 coffeesOnly one coffee per day with a tiny amount of off days where someone goes for a second. Especially since these are astronauts so they are not going to be total fiends that cant function without a white can Monster and half a pack of Zyns.
>>21961346When your Astronauts look like an Indie Folk band from Vermont, they eat like an Indie Folk band from Vermont.
>>21960966Didn't that literally happen on the ground with SETI? Anyway, I believe it's more of a regular oven than a microwave, the food comes in pouches kinda like MREs and they stick them in a thing with electric heating elements. At least that's how it worked on Shuttle and still does on the ISS.>>21960969afaik freeze dried stuff like that is pretty rare in space now, it doesn't really save any weight (since you have to carry the water for it) and most stuff sucks when dehydrated and then reconstituted.
>>21960845mango does NOT go in salad. fucking liberals ruining EVERYTHING as usual
where's the booze?
>>21961346>>21961340>>21961324>it's manly and cool to have to eat literal shit.The US is the country that made ice-cream boats for soldiers. Why wouldn't the food not suck when it doesn't have to?
>>21961432They're supposed to be inspiring kids they're not gonna say "vodka from their ISS comrades from Russia" and "A bottle of Bourbon". But none of those astronauts look like teetotalers. Koch looks like she already made a tiki-cocktail she named "Take Me to the Moon"
>>21961457Astronaut Ice Cream is better than some fancy New York City Bistro slop.
>>21961457>it's manly and cool to have to eat literal shit.You said it yourself. Don't be a pussy, faggot.
>>21961457Because nobody believes this is anything other than a DEI stunt
>>21960958Are you operating a spacecraft?
>>21961659This.These astronauts have the army go-pills.
The idea of astronauts having their choccy milk will always amuse me.>>21961063>artificial gravity soon surelyDoes spinning thingies count as artificial gravity?>>21961675>These astronauts have the army go-pills.Officially they don't have any. But they may have some other "mild stimulants" that are tightly controlled.Take that as you will.
>>21961739>Does spinning thingies count as artificial gravity?It's the easiest way to do a simulacrum of gravity, and we know how to do it in principle. There's a few engineering tricky bits left to solve (to do with deploying tethers and so on).But we won't bother for a 10 day mission. We'd probably need to do it if we were doing a mission to Mars.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3kR2KK8TEsthey're unpacking food now
>>21960845>189 menu items>for 30 mealsIsn't that a bit too much? Surelyyou only need 1-2 items per meal when in space.
>>21961659I am, but calling your Mom a spacecraft is rude.
>>21961739oh so a black man goes to space ppl immediately think he's got coke
>>21960845it's great that they get to eat well but desu for only 10 days i feel like they could get by on a couple boxes of clif bars and some water. this isn't exactly a transatlantic crossing
>>21961854A lot of the items are pieces nobody eats just a tortilla or just some syrup. They still prolly portion calories and space
>>21961846looks pretty cramped. how much space is in there?
>>21961019>in space, no one can hear you [spoiler] [/spoiler]
>>21961873now enough for my brahps. I murder colleagues daily
>>21961855
>>21960845>no Tangamerica is lost
>>21961017I wish I could be the designated Tube Inserter
>>21962545Tang has added soy.
>>21962563Based soy enjoyer
>>21962563First pizza rolls, now tang. Is nothing sacred to big soy?
>>21960845>coffee>couscous and nuts>spicy beans>five hot saucesyeah no wonder the toilet broke, that fucker is working overtime
>>21962563Oh boo hoo! Our astronauts should be trying to bulk up
>>21961582Kill yourself retard
>>21961457>it's manly and cool to have to eat literal shit.It really is.The only reason there are 100x more flavor combinations and coffees as there need to be is so the African can get his seezuninz and the woman can get her Starbucks. Why else would they bring hot sauce than for the nigger?
>>21962422There's that fag talk again.
>>21962951>Why else would they bring hot sauce than for the nigger?Anybody who's ever served in the military or even gone camping can answer this question. Shelf-stable foods are fucking flavorless even by white bread midwestern food standards and really need an extra kick to be palatable.
Just glad the racism and sexism has covered up the fact the white guys are a Jew and a Canadian
>>21961400mango goes in everything you stupid bitch
its only 10 days. I wonder if they are bringing apples, baked goods, cheese strings
>>21962951it really is hilarious this meme has buckbroken timmies who think pepper is spicy to such a degree that it still makes them have meltdowns years later. imagining turning food into a political/race issue. so fucking pathetic lmao.
>>21962964It's a week round trip, dude. They don't need to pack the fucking espresso machine or the chicken washing soap.
>>21961739>The idea of astronauts having their choccy milk will always amuse me.they're allowed to have it. they need to do 2 hours of physical exercise every day not to have their bodies wither away in zero gravity.
it do be hilarious like that... this meme done buckbroken y'all yt's inta thinkin pepper spicy o sumshit dip dap bix nood muhfuggah
^kek fucking seething
Calling it. The launch is going to be sabotaged by "terrorists", outraging the public and justifying yet another war against Israel's enemies. Gets people to shut up about why we haven't managed to go back to the moon yet and does the long-nose tribe's dirty work for them. Win-win as far as the fed's concerned.
>>21963014>The launch is going to beHow are people this uninformed?
>>21962995You're the only one doing it
>>21960845>5 different hot sauces >wonder why there's a burning smell coming from the toilet
Where's the liquor?
>>21962995Imagine having to invent such cope just because your skin looks like poop
>>21961063What, the poop suction device?
>>21960943The caffeine gets into the bloodstream much quicker in space because of the low gravity
>>21963127>much quicker in space because of the low gravityImagine a wine butt chug
>>21963039look at the reply i'm replying to retard-kun.
Umm now what?
>>21960958they prob have strict restrictions on stuff like being addicted or overeating it seems like a mission so life or death everything down to caffeine consumption would be managed to avoid headaches or diarrhoea if i was in charge i wouldn't want any smokers for the same reason and id probably take control of everything the astronauts eat drank and did for like two weeks leading up to the mission
>>21963550this would just encourage them to rebel and sneak a sandwitch in their space suit or something crazy
>>21960845Where's the Tang?
>>21962995Is that Freddie Mercury?
