Our food had to be light and

last a long time. It also needed

to be nutritious and taste good.

We ate dried food every day.

Imagine dried ice cream!

Space is usually really cold, but

it can also get too hot. Our

spacecraft was made of special

materials to conserve heat, and

it used radiators when it

needed to cool down.

On Earth, air is about 78

percent nitrogen and 21 percent

oxygen. In the spacecraft, air

was made from liquid oxygen

and liquid nitrogen. Wow!a b

One of the dangers in space

is fi re, so our spacecraft had

smoke detectors, alarms and

warning lights. Of course, there

was no smoking on board!

Because there was very little

room on our spacecraft, all waste

was recycled. We cleaned the

spacecraft every day so that

we didn’t get sick.

This is essential to life. In space

the humidity in our breath was

recycled and made very pure.
