Prepared in 1971 by NASA's Technology Utilization Office during the Apollo missions period, this study is an overview of NASA's ongoing work on food preservation technologies related to nutrition and preservation and their real and potential impact on the consumer food industry.  Unsurprisingly, NASA has extremely rigid requirements for food preparation and storage; if it's going to travel to space, it has to be done correctly.  These regulations have provided new and improved options for processing, preserving, and sterilizing food for consumption here on Earth, as well as, new, in-depth information about nutrition.
