According to Food & Wine, the space menu is mostly made up of Spanish dishes including paella.

The food will be sent to the ISS this spring at the same time as a private flight.

Four lucky people make up the private crew and they’ll spend eight days on the ISS.

Nasa veteran Michael López-Alegría will be the commander on the upcoming launch.

He’s also a friend of Andrés.

Andrés told Food & Wine: “Before I began dreaming of feeling people in a space, I dreamt of feeding people underwater, like Jules Verne.

“So I think feeding people for me is the ultimate challenge, especially in the edges of the known world.”


Astronauts will eat the planned paella together as if it’s a “family meal”.

Although the meal will be a treat, Nasa makes sure its astronauts always have plenty of food on the ISS.

This includes desserts and condiments like ketchup and mustard.
