NASA has all the coolest ideas, but this might be their best one yet: 3D printed food!
That’s right, NASA is willing to fund the creation of a 3D pizza printer in order to allow astronauts to travel further into space with enough sustenance! More than that, a 3D food printer would also revolutionize how we look at food and if easily accessible, could be the means to end world hunger! It would also minimize waste because it would allow people to print exactly what they want when they want it!
How exactly does a 3D food printer work? Well, instead of using ink to print, the printer would instead use basic “building blocks” of food (such as flour, water and oil) in replaceable cartridges. The plan is that eventually these 3D food printers will be available in kitchens everywhere and become a staple of every household.
