NASA's given researchers $200,000 to turn human poop into food

"The food that will sustain future generations as we colonise our way across space may be none other than our own sh*t, if a new NASA-funded project is successful.

The US space agency has allocated researchers at Clemson University in South Carolina US$200,000 a year for up to three years to figure out how to recycle human faeces into synthetic food that could sustain astronauts during extended journeys or on a Martian colony."

Still wanna be an astronaut? :)
 
Space is a wondrous and beautiful place, but humans just aren't biologically designed to live there. It's interesting to consider how humans might adapt and evolve to overcome this in the immediate future as well as the far future.
 
Never did anything for me.
Now tell I'm going to colonize an earth like planet with no liberals and I have to propagate the species and i'm there.
And the hunting and fishing!!! Oh my God would it be good!!
