00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:05,061
Making a grilled cheese sandwich is simple. Unless\h
you’re on the Moon. Or flying in space. \h\h

2
00:00:05,061 --> 00:00:11,498
Right now, astronauts aboard the Space Station get food\h
thanks to spacecraft regularly launching from\hEarth.

3
00:00:11,498 --> 00:00:15,520
But future astronauts on a trip to\h
Mars will spend years away from our planet.\h\h

4
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:20,000
That means no quick trips to the grocery\h
store or cargo ships bringing supplies.\h\h

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,480
They’ll have to bring just about everything\h
they need with them. Is that even feasible?

6
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,880
To boldly go where no human has gone before,\h
we have to invent food production systems\h\h

7
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:34,240
that can be used in space. These new solutions\h
could also improve our food systems on Earth.\h\h

8
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,360
They might even help us reduce\h
food insecurity on our planet.\h\h

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,240
That’s why NASA and the Canadian Space Agency\h
are launching the Deep Space Food Challenge.\h\h

10
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:46,080
Participants can win prize money for their\h
ideas on how to keep our astronauts fed on\h\h

11
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,534
future space exploration missions.\h

12
00:00:48,534 --> 00:00:50,560
We believe you can make it happen.
