50 Years of Space Food for Astronauts


These pictures show the incredible evolution of the food eaten by astronauts as they explored the cosmos over the past 50 years. NASA has released the images, which show the transition from the meat paste Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space, sucked from a toothpaste tube to the gourmet meals astronauts currently enjoy. The pictures were posted on the space agency's website by NASA's Space Food Systems Laboratory, where the agency researches, tests, and produces food fit for consumption outside of the Earth's atmosphere.
