It's the first question everyone asks when you tell them you visited the place where they made food for astronauts on ISS. When you're on the station for 6 months, and this is all you can eat, having the best tasting food possible is really important to the mental health of the crew.
Colin Hermin actually men can lactate when need be. Google it. Plus we all start out female per say. Look at your genitals. If you have a little bit of imagination, logic and reasoning you can see how each part mirrors something in the opposite sex. Like the head of the penis would be the clit for instance.
They also kept their minds on track with the use of the obviously named Astroglide and gerbils for experimentation as well. I believe Hatfield(sp?) was big on this theorectickle equation that put fourth the idea that gerbils could get astronauts off no matter what the jam aka “Gerbil Jamming ^MicroGrav”. Something that Hatfield tested daily on himself as well as the cosmonauts and whomever else (he called these assistants “Flies”) fell into something he described as “Mother Spider’s Web”. It was described by Chris Z. Hatfield as a way to “bring them out their cages. Even if they’re sleeping we’ll just wake um up”; they being the tender parts and minds of the next generation.
goood thing you have the space bag mango peach smoothie that was made 6-12 months prior to being eaten... to wash it down. :) Just the way I like my smoothies.
Men, when you think you said something stupid just remember that NASA engineers asked the first female astronaut if 100 tampons were enough for a 7 day mission
I don't think he was annoying, rather he was "reflecting"; it's a conversational technique in which one processes the information and repeats in back in an analogous form to indicate that the last message was understood. It's more in-depth than simply "copy that" or nothing at all. I also thought she did excellently although the pacing of their conversation wasn't perfectly smooth at times, something one might expect when two imperfect organisms communicate information. By the way, the OP catherine coronel grew a tremendously pretty hollywood face that I and lots of other people clicked on, wishing they could download her face to compliment and stare at in a mildly creepy way.
@@innervinesmusic Russian cuisine. Most of the time it's not for the American palate. Sometimes even Slavs can't stomach it. Basically onions, fish, potatoes, fat and some other things.
4:20 "They can clamp it closed to prevent fluid from flowing out of the package in micro gravity" Less than a second later "What happends if they don't clamp it closed?" If I was her, I would just be quiet for 10 seconds, then say "What did I just say?"
I just wish she would stop saying "On Orbit" it's like nails on a chalkboard! Guess she is just your typical American, can help but butcher the English language, it's not as if she works with people "In Orbit" XD.
OK where to start :L You misspelled Americans. America, English and Americans begin with capital letters. I'm and don't have apostrophes. I should be capitalized, same with the I in I'm (it is I am after all, never mind the fact that a question mark ends a sentence and the first word in a sentence begins with a capital letter) and then you misspelled realize (I understand that is how it was taught to you but the language is English so much like the word 'color' if it is spelled different in England than you are spelling it wrong). I didn't say all Americans are stupid, fat or lazy, simply pointed out the fact that Americans can't speak proper English (intelligence has very little to do with literacy). Here are some examples; 1. On orbit isn't a thing, it's in orbit 2. LEGOS is not the plural of LEGO 3. Your guyses is not only wrong in every way but also unnecessary. Why say "I'm inspired by 'your guyses' show" when you can simply say "I'm inspired by your show"?
I can't believe that after such a long time of this 2 guys doing this show they are still so awkward in front of a camera and unable to not interrupt the person they are interviewing. Hilarious.
Seriously. I wish Vickie had gotten an actual opportunity to teach and explain these foods and products. I feel like the most time she had to speak freely was about 15 seconds.
+Jeffery Peters (Ferrariassassin) I like how all your arguments against USA not having worse health than for example the UK is that he is stupid and that he is "soooo stupid" etc. That's amusing to me. Only seems like you are the stupid one. If the UK is not a first world country then why is their overall life expectancy rank 19? If you compare it to the US with the overall rank of 34 you would have to call the US a third world country too. Watch the documentary "Sicko" if you want it explained in an easy way why the US can't compete with the UK when it comes to life expectancy.
I wish he would stop talking so much. Give her a chance to speak. She is the one we want to hear and she will go over everything if you would just shut up.
This video is seriously good. It tells the history, explains the process and then gets to the nitty gritty taste. Great job on this! If I ever right another story about space, I will certainly be using the information provided!
Stop interrupting the person you're interviewing and let her talk. We're far more interested in what she has to say. Interrupting with shit like "like Sriracha or Texas Sunshine" just breaks the flow. We understand what hot sauce is.
You don't understand how businesses work, do you? Cause I bet her boss was like, he's going to help lead you. Then some jackass like you comes along and comments this to make them both look bad.
im SO glad to see I wasn't the only person who noticed this!! after I put my comment up, I started reading all the rest of the comments and saw this one.
The Russian food is canned because instead of changing the MREs from the military, they use the same meals in space. The usual Russian simple approach.
Do not be silly. They don't use millitary grade MRE on orbit missions, that food is totaly different. In addition as canned food they have food in plastic bags like NASA and food tubes, tubes like with toothpaste but filled with borsсht, different kinds of meat dishes. Furthermore if you ask absolutely any russian about space food he replies you something like "oh, yeah, it's a borscht in the tube". P.S. There is an mistake on the label, not "Тортия" right will be "Тортилья".
Most of the retort food is made at Texas A&M under a contract for NASA. They didn't have room for the retort machine at Johnson. They have different nutritional requirements for astronauts than soldiers do. It's mostly about fewer calories, but also sodium levels are dramatically lower. MREs I've tasted are all pretty salty, while this was definitely not salty. High sodium diets bring some gnarly health complications in microgravity, so it's worth spending money on.
+Wayne Hong Part of these people are americans, but we dont just speak when someone is talking, but if youre talking about someone that you can relate to, you can relate to my dad 😂
Lol has nothing to do with nationality, that guy was just all wound up and wanted to prove he knew these things. But yeah, should let them talk. He seemed tense.
While the space pen vs pencil is a myth, there seems to be a real life version here. US - freeze dried, vacuum sealed, sterilized, etc. Russia - Put in can.
I think there's value in the NASA method, though; considerations like weight and how much space it occupies probably had a lot to do with the packaging looks like now.
the pen pencil is almost real, the reason they used a pen instead of a pencil is that the small black powder that comes out of the pencil might fly and end up in their lungs due to lack of gravity.
If a lot of this sounds familiar, bear in mind that lot of earthbound food technology (packaging, preservation, etc) is a direct result of the space program
Except for the most part, that have just been refined trough the centurys ^^ But if you want something sensas, here : Current diapers is a result of the space program
Andrew Leece i think they are both off, the one on the right is just a little bit less off.. but still. if I had been in that room, i would have corrected the issue X3
It always blows my mind on how much they have thought of EVERYTHING and every possible scenerio when it comes to anything going in space. Which, yeah, they have to, but there's so much to prepare for, you'd think they'd look over something, but nope. They have it nailed.
Im imagining a scene where a group of astronauts are getting together for a barbecue . . .theres trays and paper plates, soft drinks and mustard, the usual, and everyone is chatting away having a grand old time when suddenly there is a cry of "Dammit" followed by laughter . . . . .one of the astronauts had just stood up to get more food and had forgotten they werent in micro gravity and now theres food, sauce and drink everywhere. . .i mean, if you are so used to strapping a tray to your calf and moving around without things falling off . . . . . . ya gotta wonder if the floor at NASA isnt coffee stained because some absent minded astronaut just opened their hand after having a sip of coffee because USUALLY they just hang there til you get back 😂😂😂
Aleksei Krasnov Alesnarovich Both, you can look at the line segment where the walls meet and you can compare the base of the picture frame to the counter top which both are tilted
Back in elementary school, we tasted freeze dried astronaut ice creams. The strawberry and vanilla flavors tasted so good. I just remembered that I wanted to order some of my own.
It'd be cool if there was a space food restaurant on earth. Prepared exactly like it would be for transit to the ISS, then rehydrated and heated for serving.
so you are telling me that NASA, One of the most advanced corporations on earth, has not figured out to put the tear marks on the other side of the package instead of leaving them where they are if that is how they are suppose to open it???? my mind is boggled right now
The first time the plesiosaurus was shown, Zeppo had a red shirt but in the very next scene it was yellow then switched back to red midway through the scene.
It reminds me of this thing from the early 90's I think, called Burple. It was basically Kool Aid powder that came in an accordian-type container just like that, colored to indicate the flavor. It was weird, I was a kid, I liked it.
I'd guess that the sodium (and maybe the outgassing that prevents them from buying off-the-shelf. Too much sodium on orbit can contribute to bone loss, vision problems, etc. This stuff tasted much better than MREs I've had in the past. They also package most of the food in some pretty heavy-duty sauces, to make the food stick together better and make it easier to eat.
Yeah. The one dish that they had a little teensy problem with was chili during the Skylab missions whenever one of the crew members would open up a can of that spicy dish it would blow all over the joint it's bad news said one of the Skylab astronauts. But on the upside any item that has gravy or sauce is great because it will hold it in the container if it's relatively thick.
You find it condescending that a lady finds her method of packing food better and more effective than that of a different person? That's like complaining that Chevy thinks they have better cars than Ford.
That is because it is an outdated and not practical system. Imagine if you are fighting a war and you enemy is using muskets while you use an M16, yea you would laugh at that too
That the Russians still use metal cans for their food puzzles me. You'd think the extra weight from cans compared to plastic food packaging must significantly drive up their fuel costs...
@@fredrickcanales35456 month late but hes reffering to the unkept russian side of the iss which is loaded with trash and is overall unhygenic but its contained to ther side and doesnt impact weight etc that much so nothing gets done about it
I watched the whole video and found it interesting that, as spacecraft, missions, and partners with NASA changed and evolved, they felt it necessary sometimes to go back to older food delivery systems, not always forward to new ones. I was really surprised that Russia still uses canned foods, but if it works... I'm also glad that the food-in-a-tube was only briefly lived - my books made it seem that it was standard fare throughout Apollo missions. Those commenting on the tear tabs on NASA's stabilized food packs...I assumed they had the same packager as companies who make military, survival, and outdoorsman MRE foods. Anybody with a lick of sense wouldn't simply rip open a package of hot soup or noodles with sauce in zero-G. A little thinking-ahead, a bit of careful snipping with scissors, and your space meal will end up in your belly, not on your jumpsuit. I wonder if anyone has experimented in space with brewing beer, vinting wine, or distilling spirits. Liter bottles of single-malt Scotch, made and aged on the International Space Station, could help defray the costs of sending people to space. "Bidding for ten bottles of Low Earth Orbit Special Old Ten-Year, starting at $500,000..."
It's the same technology, but the retort food for NASA is prepared at Texas A&M. The food for astronauts has fewer calories than most MREs and much less salt. There are really gnarly side effects for astronauts living on orbit for extended periods of time that can be partially avoided by eating low-salt diets. (bone loss, etc)
I don't appreciate as much them taking over the show. This lady probably didn't either. Nasa > Tested. They should have been a bit more humble in the interview instead if talking over the guide as much.
Between the interviewer interrupting her every five seconds and the camera man who thought it would be appropriate to adopt a Dutch angle in a video about astronaut food, they're lucky the lady managed to make this interesting.
+Kevin Nguyen yeah but like if it was soft or hard or crunchy or mushy anything at all that expanded our understanding of the food beyond the name and pictures of it...wouldnt have added but a few seconds of any at all
skullcharger887 This isn't no fucking food video. IF you want food video go watch them. This video was made to understand how Astronaut eat in space. You watch too many mre channel dude. It will not be a couple second on each packaging, he/she will comment back etc. Video will drag on, This was already near 30 minutes.
mADESThATTER106 I think they try to make the eating experience more humane and closer to home. If they wanted to make it as efficient as possible they wouldn’t even bother giving them warmable food.
Rikard Nilsson Due to the lack of an atmosphere to transfer heat the food in open space wouldn't freeze if anything it would slowly heat up due to the suns radiation.
They should have asked if they knew about psychological effects on the astronauts with all the food over the different eras, if the changes were made on the food just by the technological possibility of doing it or it was because of health
I wonder what items are Russia's and US's favorite to share. AKA, what are the cosmonauts favorite US food, and what are the astronauts favorite Russian food?
I have one question..sorry for my grammar.. when the astronaut.. they eat the food in the space.. means there is zero gravity ..when the food they ate was swallow in... the food will digest well? or floating like them? why? sorry I'm just curious
Will needs to practice his speaking. He tries so hard to speak fast, but almost every sentence is a jumble of him trying to speak quickly but it just ends up with him mumbling many words together. It sounds like he's very stressed and nervous, it makes me cringe. He should calm down and work on his articulation. I love Tested, but whenever he's talking, it's the only thing I can focus on
