摘 要:For decades,meals for astronauts during their trips off planet have mostly consisted of prepackaged dehydrated or freeze-dried food,occasionally garnished with terrarium-grown lettuce(Fig.1)[1,2].With longer-term missions to extraterrestrial outposts on the near horizon,a US National Aeronautics and Space Agency(NASA)competition now in its final stages aims to meet the nutritional needs of astronauts on deep space *** added benefit could be innovations in low-resource food production that could help feed Earth’s still growing human population.
