Bullet points of Orange you glad there's fruit in space? These astronauts sure are (video)
- Astronauts on the International Space Station only get fresh fruit every few months, so they savor every bite
- NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick shared a video of himself enjoying a slice of orange shipped to the ISS
- Fresh fruit and vegetables are 'the most sought after' by long-duration crews due to their short shelf life and lack of dedicated refrigeration on the ISS
- A limited supply of fresh fruits and vegetables arrives with each visiting vehicle and is eagerly consumed by the onboard crews
- NASA has nutritious supplements available, but astronauts find there's no substitute for the real thing
- Astronauts have enjoyed harvests of radishes, lettuce, chile peppers, and other fresh foods after planting their seeds in space
- NASA astronaut Frank Rubio joked about losing tiny space tomatoes on the ISS, which were later found dehydrated and slightly squished after being lost in orbit for months
- The ISS has a range of experiments testing out fruit and vegetable gardens in orbit that occasionally allows astronauts to consume the results
