How does food stay fresh on the ISS?
Frank De Winne is answering a question on the ISS submitted by Cedric from Belgium:
– How do you occupy yourself during the 2-day Soyuz journey to the ISS?
– How does food stay fresh in space, since there is no fridge on the ISS?
This is so cool!!!ย I want t try some space food!
Without air, space is a poor thermal conductor. This means anything at ambient temperature will not get cold any time soon, so it isn't the best way to preserve food, although Skylab had a food freezer.
bye bye from now๐๐
Isn't it freezing cold on the station's dark side? Just keep it there, heat it up on the sunny side. Yankee ingenuity!
The read on the can is "ะััะพ ั ะฒะตัะผะธัะตะปัั". So Russian canned meat with vermicelli.
