How:
In space, whether in zero gravity like the ISS, or in gravity, as in rotating station or on the Moon or Mars, room is tight, and mass is expensive! What technologies will make growing food in space possible? How do you tie various machines and organisms together to feed people and recycle air and water? How do we make farms that can provide food to other settlements and maybe even back to Earth? What kinds of dishes can future space tourists, workers, or settlers expect?
