There is almost no man who has not at least try the taste of beer. In recent years, the brewing industry is so developed and beer (for us) and got the status of "food products". Sporting and other events after the withdrawal of tobacco industry almost inevitably enriched beer commercials. But what if the beer is a bit unusual - for example when it comes to space beer?
The Japanese company Sapporo and Kurashiki University in collaboration with the local Space Agency (JAXA), NASA and Russian researchers went to an entertainment business and research and media project space beer called Sapporo Space Barley.
At the international space station brought samples of the finished beer and herbs that are used in its manufacture. Now the space beer on Earth and the Japanese have decided to give a chance for 250-Torics lucky ones who will have the opportunity to buy space beer at a cost of few bucks for a bottle. Before Christmas will be elected 60 new lucky. Drink a sip of beer space for the upcoming holidays will still be a real rarity.
Regarding speculation that the space beer distinguished by its quality and taste of the beer produced in its entirety and "odležanog" the spokesman for the country Sapporo Yuki Hattori, said: It does no difference in taste or in the composition of cosmic or terrestrial beer! After the tests in the laboratory was established in an identical chemical composition of both beers.
All participants in this interesting project and will continue to work on it, and American Ian O'Neil suggested that in the near future instead of ground water used by the stem and those grown in the ISSU and the water that is exempt from the device for recycling urine to the ISS. Then it would be the right space beer!
The research part of this project takes a bit of media Manabu Sugimoto from Okayama University in Japan and all along part of the Russian Research Program "vegetable gardens" in the universe.
The lottery can participate through this link www.sapporobeer.jp / spacebarley / index.html. Unfortunately the material is in Japanese and you'll have to find someone who can read and write in this Far Eastern languages.
Although at first glance, this "power play" seem frivolous to bear in mind that the man is planning in this century to colonize the moon. This is followed by Mars, or a third celestial body. Flight spacecraft manned around the solar system sooner or later will become a reality. At this point, and technical creations will become a home for members of our species. Drink a sip of beer or save a salad with plants grown in space will no longer be the only exotic but a necessity of human habitation in space.
