"NASA's Destination Tomorrow™: Bringing the Future into Focus" is designed for educators, parents and lifelong learners by NASA Langley's Office of Education. This educational, informative program builds on the premise that much of NASA's aeronautical research focuses on creating today's knowledge to solve tomorrow's problems.

In part one of this two part edition of Destination Tomorrow™ we take a look at Food Technology and how it is used by NASA. We'll find out about packaging and processing food for short and long duration space flights. And we'll see what types of foods astronauts are enjoying in space.
