Deep Space Food Challenge

Deep Space Food Challenge is a brand that offers a unique and exciting opportunity for innovators in the field of food technology. This brand represents a collaborative international effort between NASA, the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and the Methuselah Foundation. The challenge is designed to stimulate innovation and drive advances in science and technology related to food production for long-duration space travel.

The Deep Space Food Challenge is a prize competition that follows a stage-gated approach, providing financial and non-financial incentives to successful participants at each phase. NASA and CSA will organize parallel challenges with their own rules, prizes, and eligibility. However, they will synchronize certain activities and employ a shared challenge statement, goals, and assessment criteria.

This brand is a part of NASA's Centennial Challenges program, which aims to foster innovation and prototype demonstration for space and aeronautical activities. The Canadian Space Agency is responsible for promoting space-related activities in Canada and is working with Impact Canada to execute the challenge in the country. The Methuselah Foundation, a biomedical charity, serves as the proud administrator of the Deep Space Food Challenge.
