MONTREAL Space might be the final frontier, but you still gotta eat while you re there. So scientists, including some in Canada, are always hard at work improving the food that leaves Earth with astronauts – a mission that can pay dividends for those of us stuck on this planet. That s why the Canadian Space Agency is taking part in the Deep Space Food Challenge, said CSA Senior Project Manager Matthew Bamsey. “It s exciting innovators in Canada to find ways we can keep our astronauts well-fed on long-duration missions while at the same time improving food production systems here on Earth,” he said.
