So Much for The Naked Orbital Chef


Space BurritoNASA astronaut Sandra Magnus has been spending the last four months learning to cook in zero-G. She’s been keeping a journal of her experiences, doing things like cooking chopped onions in leftover foil pouches and using duct tape to keep crumbs from floating away and clogging air vents. Her experiences to date have been “slow, mediocre, and dangerous.”

Dangerous or not, I am deeply entertained by the floating burrito.

You can see a slideshow of some of her efforts at Discovery.

    I think you can scratch the “or not.” Burritos in a closed life support system = VBII (Very Bad Idea, Indeed)
