Humans have been exploring space for many years, and everyone is curious about what astronauts eat and how they eat in space.
Exploring space is a challenging thing, there is no air, no water, no land, no life, such a harsh space environment, it is very important for astronauts to survive on it.
因此，航天员在太空中吃的食物也是十分看重。 太空中的物体是处于失重状态，所以航天员所吃的食物不能是易碎或掉渣的，一般做成真空包装的“一口吃”或复水熟食，经过简单的加热就可以吃了。

据了解，中国空间站上的食物种类有太多了，数量达到上百种还不带重样，有粥有面有饺子，并且已经实现八大菜系自由，还有各种水果、甜点、咖啡、零食等，荤素搭配营养丰富。

其实，航天员在太空吃的食物跟在地球上吃的差不多，区别在于他们吃东西的方法不一样。

After seeing the food that astronauts eat in space, netizens began to discuss:
有人说航天员吃的是预制菜。
If you want to say that they eat pre-made dishes, it is also high-standard pre-made dishes, without any additives and preservatives, which is not the same grade as the pre-made dishes we eat.

有网友比较关心航天员怎么上厕所。
拉屎有专门的袋子，在解决之前开空气净化器，拉屎的袋子拉完之后抽真空，然后再把袋子放到专门存放便便的地方，最后和货运飞船一起在太空中燃烧坠毁。

What should I do if the astronauts run out of food?
Don't worry about this kind of thing, every time we explore space, we will stock up on enough food, and if we don't have enough to eat, we also have cargo ships to replenish the substance.

还有网友表示在太空没有重力，食物是怎么吞下肚子？
The process of eating and swallowing is oral squeezing and esophageal peristalsis, which does not rely on gravity, and of course does not float in the mouth.

我们国家的航天技术不断取得进步，也希望科技不断发展，航天员以后吃得更好。
