Traveling in endless space is a very painful thing for astronauts.

There are various problems here that need them to solve.

But at the same time, space is an uninhabited land full of unknowns and mysteries, attracting the attention of scientific workers around the world. When astronauts successfully boarded space, scientists had to face a thorny question: What do astronauts eat?

Food is the most important thing for the people. This is an old saying that has never been wrong.

Astronauts are no exception. Their work is very intense and dangerous.

When it comes to food, scientists are also racking their brains, such as the Russian astronauts. Their space technology is very advanced and quite mature.

Canned and compressed food have long been replaced by other delicacies. Nowadays, Russian astronauts’ food is more nutritious. The delicacies mainly include “big lobster, Russian cheese, ham” and so on.

As the first country to send humans to the moon, the United States has also undergone earth-shaking changes in the diet of its astronauts, from "canned and toothpaste" foods at the beginning to "burgers, cola, and salads" today.

When encountering delicacies rich in national symbols, and even occasionally on representative Western holidays such as Thanksgiving, astronauts can also enjoy a steaming turkey dinner. This is undoubtedly a blessing for American astronauts.

The recipes of Japanese astronauts are also very characteristic of their own nation, mainly sushi, ramen, and Japanese food. In order to allow their astronauts to remember the taste of their hometown in distant space, the Japanese are still constantly improving themselves.

Food list.

Well, in China, which has a vast territory and abundant resources, the food is no less generous!

At present, China’s space cuisine is generally divided into seven categories, with more than 70 kinds of Chinese food.

Not only that, there are dozens of Western food dishes. These foods are not only complete in variety, but also delicious and nutritious. However, for the health of astronauts, most of the foods are relatively light. Chinese scientists have also spared no effort to develop suitable space cuisine. Poultry

, live fish, even snails, salamanders, etc., these have all been considered by scientists, but these foods have various problems. Raising chickens requires manpower, material resources and space, and space capsules are inherently very

It’s so small that astronauts have a lot of important things to deal with, so they don’t have the energy to raise chickens. Moreover, if they want to eat fresh live fish, they have to meet the fish’s water quality requirements, which is obviously very difficult to handle in a space capsule.
