Mars and the Moon are out there waiting for us to come and visit, and it’s only a matter of time. Once we go there, what happens? We can’t bring chickens to Mars, so what do we eat? Do we bring food for the entire 3-5 year mission? Do we grow food there? What happens when a short mission extends to long-term habitation? How exactly are we going to feed an off-world population?

On April 12, 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Yuri A. Gagarin made history as the first human in space aboard his Vostok capsule. During his single orbit around Earth, he also became the first person to eat in space, squeezing beef-and-liver paste from an aluminum tube into his mouth.
A Brief History of Food in Space

This problem was especially difficult during the time when people made long sea voyages on sailing ships. Great explorers like Columbus, Magellan and Cook carried dried foods and foods preserved in salt and brine.

Food production on Mars is usually thought of in terms of growing plants to partially support small exploration crews for short- to medium-term stays. Here, we consider the more radical goal of producing enough food on Mars to sustain a permanent settlement of private citizens that increases to 1 million people within 100 Earth years.
