The European Space Agency (ESA) is now exploring the possibility to grow meat in space so that astronauts can be fed properly on long-duration missions. With this step, the agency is hoping to improve the sustainability of growing meat on Earth too. For successfully completing this goal, the teams will set requirements for growing meat in space. Solving the challenges of growing meat in space could also help us find solutions to produce it sustainably and effectively on Earth. Cultured meat could make conventional meat a thing of the past, but more research into the production technology is needed.”
