Food in space! 02 | Meals on Mars

In episode two of our series on food in space, we're travelling beyond the exosphere to discover how we might feed ourselves during voyages into deep space and how that technology could change what we eat here on Earth. We learn about new farming techniques optimised for hostile environments, the Australian plants hitching a ride to the Moon in 2026, and a protein source that can be manufactured 'from thin air.'
