(66pp., stapled) This volume examines "feeding in very short to very long space missions. Preflight feeding provisions are described as well as partially regenerative systems, and finally, the requirements of a closed ecology are considered. A section is devoted to permissible preflight foods. Varied menus are offered for flights of short, medium, and long duration in an ascending order of variety, consumer acceptance and support equipment." Well illustrated, and very interesting reading. Very good condition.
