Europe wants to make space food out of thin air and astronaut pee

The European Space Agency has launched the HOBI-WAN project, which will test innovative food-production methods on the International Space Station. By utilizing resources such as air and astronaut urine, this project seeks to create sustainable food sources for long-duration missions to the Moon and Mars. As space exploration advances, ensuring that astronauts have access to adequate nutrition becomes increasingly important. The success of HOBI-WAN could pave the way for future missions, reducing reliance on Earth-supplied food and enhancing the feasibility of extended space travel.
