Mankind conquers space. Against the background of special attention to the conquest of space territories and deepening into the Universe, scientists are struggling with the question of how to feed the astronauts so that they can survive the dangerous trials that space is fraught with.
One of the most important components of the diet of astronauts will be meat. However, meat is a product that spoils quickly and this complicates the task. Humanity has already been able to grow plants in space. Now scientists are developing methods that will allow growing meat to extreme conditions, writes Planet Today.
The European Space Agency is pushing for more lab research to grow meat in space to feed astronauts on long missions. Also, these studies can help to increase the sustainability of this option within our planet.
During the course of the study, expert teams will analyze, compare nutritional value, and determine the potential benefits of cultured meat products versus protein food alternatives. Successful research results will help not only to expand the diet of astronauts, but will also be able to help solve a number of problems with the production and storage of meat products on planet Earth itself.
