Healthy Astronauts

Target:
  • KS4
  • KS5/Sixth Form

A balanced diet is essential to stay healthy. Astronauts must consume all the nutrients needed so that they have plenty of energy and remain alert.

Your task:

Write down what nutrients food must contain to keep someone healthy over a long period.

Calculate the water content of a potato/tomato/piece of meat/crisps/soup. Make a pictogram to illustrate your class results.

Design some food that astronauts could take, store and eat in weightless conditions.

N.B: Weight and packaging are important.
