Question

Predict how you think eating and drinking would be different in space. Do you think astronauts in space have the same foods and beverages you enjoy here on Earth?

Answer 1

Answer:

Today, astronauts on the space shuttle eat food in much the same way as they do here on Earth. In a low-gravity environment, food and drinks would simply float away if they weren't handled correctly. To combat this problem, food is carefully contained and drinks are packaged as dehydrated powders.
