The very first meal that American astronaut John Glenn ate in space consisted of applesauce and sugar tablets. Luckily, what astronauts eat now has evolved. Companies like Mission: Space Food are designing high-quality, nutrient-dense foods to satiate astronauts' appetites and earthlings' nutritional needs. 

In this episode, we spoke with Graham Greene, the Chief Product Officer at Mission: Space Food, who also happened to be a chef and butcher at Michelin-starred restaurants worldwide. We chatted about the constraints of designing food for space, Mission: Space Food's new multisensory product for astronauts and earthlings alike, their philosophy around personalized nutrition, and the future of food in space.
