lifetime alongside the International blank place (ISS) late got a tasty twist when an astronaut rolled sushi during a joyful crew celebration. The astronaut used simple ingredients found on board- rice, spam, fish, and added a touch of gochujang (a Korean chilli paste) and wasabi to give it extra flavour.
It wasn’t a fancy meal, but it brought smiles to the crew and showed how astronauts find small joys while living in space.
Jonny Kim, a NASA astronaut, shared this information on X through a post which was captioned, “Space sushi isn’t quite the same as the fresh stuff on the ground, but it’s not bad! We had a crew celebration recently, and one of our crewmates expressed how much they missed sushi (as do I).”
“So we collected and pitched in our personal supplies of fish, spam, and rice, coupled with a dash of gochujang and wasabi, which made for a great meal”, he added.
On the ISS, astronauts place tape on the dining table with the sticky side facing up. This clever trick helps them stick food, utensils, and condiments to the surface, preventing everything from floating away in zero gravity.
People on X loved the post and were amazed by the idea of making sushi in space.
One of the users, @Skythelimit4545, commented, "Your space sushi party sounds like a blast, and that sticky-tape table hack is genius for keeping it all together in zero gravity."
Another user, @terranea45, commented, “Love sushi too! You guys are the real stars of humanity”.
Some joked about wanting to try “space sushi” themselves, while others were curious about how food behaves in zero gravity.
