2
00:00:17,050 --> 00:00:18,251
I know that. This is it.

3
00:00:18,251 --> 00:00:20,720
Okay. Track

4
00:00:21,855 --> 00:00:24,691
are human caused climate change.

5
00:00:24,691 --> 00:00:25,692
Climate change is bad.

6
00:00:25,692 --> 00:00:26,793
Many people don't know that.

7
00:00:26,793 --> 00:00:29,029
NASA has a lot to do
with the food on your plate.

8
00:00:29,195 --> 00:00:33,767
We use data from space to monitor
agriculture and track food security.

9
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,535
So when farmers are better prepared

10
00:00:35,535 --> 00:00:39,372
for a water shortage in advance,
they can make more sustainable decisions.

11
00:00:39,472 --> 00:00:39,939
Look at much.

12
00:00:48,114 --> 00:00:51,051
That's why today we'll be learning
what it takes to grow food.

13
00:00:51,084 --> 00:00:54,754
200 miles above our heads on board
the International Space Station.

14
00:00:54,788 --> 00:00:56,489
Hello. My name is Jocelyn Argueta

15
00:00:56,489 --> 00:00:58,258
I'm your host, Kathleen Gaeta

16
00:00:58,258 --> 00:00:59,359
And this is Snack

17
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:02,128
Time with NASA
so we can send a rover to Mars.

18
00:01:02,162 --> 00:01:04,531
But now the question is,
can we make a tasty dip?

19
00:01:04,631 --> 00:01:06,066
And this is my dog, Buoy

20
00:01:06,066 --> 00:01:07,734
And we both really love cheese.

21
00:01:12,639 --> 00:01:15,308
I will eat a space potato in my lifetime.

22
00:01:15,308 --> 00:01:16,209
I promise you that.

23
00:01:17,310 --> 00:01:19,679
It's my first time, and I'm not sure

24
00:01:20,146 --> 00:01:22,849
I'm not sure how we're going to taste.

25
00:01:23,583 --> 00:01:25,752
This is so bad.

26
00:01:28,421 --> 00:01:29,456
oh, my God.

27
00:01:29,456 --> 00:01:32,659
I'm here to help explain the connection

28
00:01:32,659 --> 00:01:36,930
between space and plate is Matt Rodell,
NASA Hydrosphere Scientist.

29
00:01:37,230 --> 00:01:39,165
Hey, Matt, how's it going?

30
00:01:39,165 --> 00:01:41,067
Hey, Kathleen, how are you?
Thanks for having me.

31
00:01:41,067 --> 00:01:42,602
I'm good. Thanks for being here.

32
00:01:42,602 --> 00:01:44,237
Shut your little door.

33
00:01:44,237 --> 00:01:46,206
I can't hear

34
00:01:48,141 --> 00:01:51,211
So delicious.

35
00:01:51,444 --> 00:01:52,145
Here we go.

36
00:01:53,179 --> 00:01:55,048
Thanks so much for joining us today

37
00:01:55,048 --> 00:01:57,450
and for sharing
all this really great information.

38
00:01:57,884 --> 00:02:00,653
And thanks, everyone, for watching, happy snacking!

39
00:02:05,158 --> 00:02:06,893
And here to help explain how that happens

40
00:02:06,893 --> 00:02:10,063
is Matt Romeyn, Project Scientist
at the Kennedy Space Center.

41
00:02:10,263 --> 00:02:12,432
Matt, thank you so much for being here.
How's it going?

42
00:02:12,999 --> 00:02:13,600
Well, it's going good.

43
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,502
Glad to be here, Kathleen. Yeah.

44
00:02:15,502 --> 00:02:19,005
So you sent me a list of vegetables
that you work with, and I'm wondering

45
00:02:19,205 --> 00:02:22,041
how you go about choosing
which foods to grow up in space.

46
00:02:23,476 --> 00:02:24,978
We have to do a lot of crops screening

47
00:02:24,978 --> 00:02:28,114
We were able to screen these crops
and test them at our growth chamber at Kennedy

48
00:02:28,181 --> 00:02:29,249
Space Center.

49
00:02:29,249 --> 00:02:31,217
They are able to replicate
the environmental conditions

50
00:02:31,217 --> 00:02:34,020
of International Space Station,
except for microgravity.
