Funded by a
grant from
NASA, the
purpose of this
invention was to
create a way for
astronauts to
select and
produce
delicious food
for themselves
on missions.
Anjan Contractor: “No, our working project is
long term. We just demonstrate what we call
the phase 1 prototype, which is not space-
ready yet. It requires several modifications.”

24. In science class, you have
been discussing food that
you would bring to Mars.

25. Today, you and your partner are
going to design an invention that
will help astronauts eat a food item
in space.

26. Please make sure to
write both partners’
names and your
teacher’s name on
the worksheet so you
will have your designs
when creating your
invention in ICE.

27. Partner
Etiquette
When designing your invention,
think about:
What specific problem is your team
trying to solve?
What device will your team build to
help astronauts eat in outer space?
What are some foods your device
can be used to eat?
