NASA has a long way to go before sending a crew to Mars, yet it’s already considering the important details—like lunch.

The agency’s Advanced Food Technology Project, working with Lockheed Martin, is developing menus for a manned mission to the Red Planet sometime in the 2030s.

Interplanetary travel will require a more sophisticated system than ever before for preserving and packaging meals, as well as a way to grow food during the trip. Plans even include the greatest American meal, Thanksgiving—though pulling it off 80 million miles from Earth won’t be easy. It’s enough to make a 20-year head start sound downright reasonable.
