Mars and the Moon are out there waiting for us to come and visit, and it’s only a matter of time. Once we go there, what happens? We can’t bring chickens to Mars, so what do we eat? Do we bring food for the entire 3-5 year mission? Do we grow food there? What happens when a short mission extends to long-term habitation? How exactly are we going to feed an off-world population?

What about to eat a vegetarian diet? Will we have cows on Mars? What's the 2020 version of replicators from Star Trek? I have so many questions, so let's kick into it. This week I explore the evolution, economics, classism of eating meat, and where the human diet might go in #thefuture.

ISS20: Food on Space Station
roundupreads.jsc.nasa.gov/mob...
On April 12, 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Yuri A. Gagarin made history as the first human in space aboard his Vostok capsule. During his single orbit around Earth, he also became the first person to eat in space, squeezing beef-and-liver paste from an aluminum tube into his mouth.
A Brief History of Food in Space
airandspace.si.edu/exhibition...
Explorers and travelers throughout history have had to develop methods for preserving food and carrying enough food for their journeys. This problem was especially difficult during the time when people made long sea voyages on sailing ships. Great explorers like Columbus, Magellan and Cook carried dried foods and foods preserved in salt and brine.
Space-grown lettuce to give astronauts a more varied diet
www.theguardian.com/science/2...
“If you store packaged food for a long duration the quality, flavour and nutritional quality decrease, the vitamins degrade,” she said. “We can’t guarantee that they’re going to get enough nutrition right now.”
Feeding One Million People on Mars
www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.108...
Food production on Mars is usually thought of in terms of growing plants to partially support small exploration crews for short- to medium-term stays. Here, we consider the more radical goal of producing enough food on Mars to sustain a permanent settlement of private citizens that increases to 1 million people within 100 Earth years.

Growing Plants in Space
www.nasa.gov/content/growing-...
NASA is looking at ways to provide astronauts with nutrients in a long-lasting, easily absorbed form-freshly grown fresh fruits and vegetables. The challenge is how to do that in a closed environment without sunlight or Earth’s gravity.

Love you, #nerdfam! Stay #curious, thank you for supporting my scicomm. Here's a challenge for your Easter egg: Try to not eat any red meat for three days. Just 72 hours without mammal meat. Try it! Let me know how it goes ✨
Fun fact:
The reason artificial purple (or really, red and blue) light is used to grow plants is because green is largely useless. You can save 1/3 of the energy by eliminating green light to have the same yield.
Yes! So cool!
this is true, its because the chloroplast is green and green stuff dosent absorb green stuff very well. you wanna use the opposite color like purple or red or smt. maybe if the sun was green then all our plants would be purple :)
The plants are cutting out green because it is the middle of the spectrum that they can harness, and they don't want to get cooked on a bright day, so they absorb the edges which are unlikely to spike together and reflect the middle for safety.
@@ZeroOneInfinity Are you sure it's lettuce, and not some other green plant? 🤔
ZeroOneInfinity oh boy i love the smell of lettuce!
Who else came here from Tom Scott? (i dont regret anything)
Welcome!!
True
Shoutout
And happier because of it. Great stuff.
@@TraceDominguez I was wondering why you disappeared from seeker. I never knew you had a UA-cam channel.
You are so underrated, I'm very glad I found you (via Tom Scott)
Thank you!! 🥰 I’m so glad too
@@TraceDominguez you should do more collabs :)
Still can't wait for an Everlasting Gobstopper.
Haha
your videos look just like the type of videos i want to watch, thank you tom scott for showing me this channel
Yeah
Thank you for coming!
Trace I've watched you on UA-cam since Dnews, then seeker... you were always my favourite presenter on those channels and I never even knew about this channel! when I went through cancer with my girlfriend and lost her nearly 4 years ago I was always looking forward to your next video to cheer me up. Glad I found your channel! Subbed and will be watching all your videos soon!
Oh my gosh I’m so sorry for your loss 😨 I’m really humbled that I could even be a small part of helping you with your struggle. 💙 Welcome to the new channel! I’m so happy you’re here
This super elaborate and confusing 5 part series to promote 1$ CHEESEBURGERS is genius! Love it! I like how you though about astronauts who eat all this weird stuff. Stay on Earth, eat 1$ cheesburgers
I think we need a teleportation device so Martians can come to earth to eat.
Yum!
Why is this channel so small? The contents too freaking amazing for it to be such a small channel
Thanks so much!!
I was searching for this man for soo long.... Finally I found him... dude i love your video...cuz of ur personality and way of explaining things .. thanks dude...keep making video.....
Welcome back Siddharth!
What a great video on Tom's page. Definitely won me over as a fan, Trace!
I’m so happy! Thank you
I’m sorry - but how do you not have over 1 million subs? Your content and presentation are so good! I went back to watch some early videos and you were just as awesome with your presentation. You make your message very entertaining and really have a gift of being able to hold peoples attention. You gained a new fan in me
If we want to go on long journeys in deep space rather than into our solar system, we will need to make small ecosystem and will also need to reproduce into a spaceship. For this we surely need a bigger spaceship and will had to find out the way to make a small ecosystem.
All true!
Fantastic content! The production and science communication is amazing. Your channel needs more attention!!!!
It’s got a lot more today than on Sunday that’s for sure 😆
The production value here is astounding, keep up the good work.
The coolest thing to me will be the day we successfully grow something on Mars. When that happens it's exciting to think that matter that has been on Mars for millions of years will be merged with a terrestrial life form from Earth and then consumed by an astronaut. A human will have consumed martian matter!!! That's just so cool to think about.
That IS cool to think about
Loving these space vids
Thanks!!
9:50 So awesome!
Thanks!
This has been one of my favorite series you've done so far!
Thank you! It was really fun. More to come!
phenomenal work Trace! well thought out research!
*furiously writes down new story idea for space pirates with scurvy*
this was a super nice series and this channel is _so_ underrated.
good stuff.
Your videos are so AMAZING, I love them
Thank you!
I’ve been sent from Tom Scott and am very happy with the new channel. Subscribed
Thank you Gretchen!
While we are shipping food to space there is a good argument to ship meat. While not the most effective or efficient to grow on a per unit of energy per calorie, or money per calorie, it is really good on a pound per calorie, and also contains far more micro-nutrients per serving. When every ounce costs so much to ship stuff into space, it makes lots of sense to send that.
I have had some weird health issues the past few years, and getting to the bottom of it in 2020 has been... difficult. But because I am allergic to so many things, I am eating more meats than I use to. Not my favorite thing, but it has been a weird learning experience, because after I shifted from a diet heavy in grains to one that is heavy on protein, I found that I was not eating nearly as much. Just not as hungry in general, and less hangry when I do get hungry.
That’s interesting to think about. I mean, if we ARE shipping all the food that may be true, but we’d have to figure out how to make those nutrients stable for years in space and on Mars which can be tough. Growing them there is going to be more efficient in the longer term, so we’ll see!
@@TraceDominguez Absolutely, the goal is to grow what we can in space or on other planets. And once we have this down, then growing plants makes much more sense than growing plants to feed to animals to eat the animals. But growing traditional plants may also not be the 'best use' either. It may be far more efficient to grow an algae slurry as it can grow suspended in water that is in a sealed environment... maybe not the greatest to chow down on psychologically, but it may be so easy and effective that it could be unavoidable for multi-year self sustaining expeditions.
So glad you did the video on Tom Scott's channel! I am enjoying this so much!
💛💛💛
I hope it's doing well for you. Happy new years Trace and thank you for that awesome series. It's easy to see that you've put a lot of passion and effort into it.
Whahoo space lettuce!😋
Yum!
This was a great series Trace! I’m not sure who this other person is people have commented about but you my friend produce quality content and I appreciate what you put out.
Why thank you, my friend!
I loved this series! Awesome. 🍔 Happy New Year, Trace!
Happy new year, Becky!!
Niel deGrasse Tyson once said that the amount of money to make Mars habitable is so ridiculous that we could use half of it to make earth more habitable!
Trace thanks for the series and all that you do!
Please make 1 about coffee and anything related to it
Oooh coffee would be cool
I wonder what kinds of research are being done to figure out if it's possible to do some terraforming in the small using various plants and animals to help turn regolith into usable soil. After all, there are plants that seem well-suited to breaking down stone into a growth medium, even if the process is _very_ slow.
Interesting question, I wish I knew
I've missed you trace you were my favourite presenter on seeker. I never knew you had a channel of your own
I’m so glad you found me :)
McDonald’s and trace!!!!!!!!!! ?whaaaaaaaa? 😁😜 yaaaaaaaaaay yummy. Healthy bite out of the burger.
Just finished watching your series. Excellent. I found you through Tom Scott. I can't wait to see more.
You seem so genuine, great videos! :))
I feeel so genuine too!
Amazing video Trace! Found you from Tom's video and you're an amazing content creator. You speak wonderfully and the videos are very intriguing to keep watching. Keep going dude!
Thank you so much!
It would take a lot of water to set up and some microbe samples, but aquaponics would give fish and plants, it makes a mini ecosystem of fish feeding plants and plants cleaning the water and feeding the fish
I was looking for you after you left D-News but didnt find you... untill now with your video with Tom Scott!
I am very happy to see you keep doing your awesome job, greetings from Perú
Thanks Favio!
happy new years Trace
If "meat" were desired as a Mars food option, the only kind that is close to being sustainable would be eggs, of course from chickens.
They would require the least amount of resources over the amount of meat protein they would be providing.
Okay y'all, that Skillshare sponsorship was so well integrated!
Why thank you!
Hey Trace! I've been browsing through these comments and seen alot of people who loved you on seeker/dnews. I myself really enjoyed Dnews/seeker Plus - best podcast i've ever heard/viewed. Just found you again through Tom, and although I already were subscribed - It seems that your videos never ended up in my timeline. Hope Tom Scott's vid will help you out with the algorithm! You deserve alot more views than you've been getting - keep it up!
Thanks Kruzhh. :) that means a lot
This...was fascinating.
*Spock’s eyebrow raises*
@@TraceDominguez Not even just the science - that was interesting, but mix that with my main passion, vegetable gardening - you got a winner!
Okokokokok
But WHAT if we... Send some earth dirt on the shuttle towards mars?
Maybe just a second rocket filled with dirt lol
Your video on Tom's channel is amazing! I had to come to see if you held that quality and entertaining content, and I am not disappointed. Subbed!!
I’m so glad!
Hey trace!! Love your videos!!
Thanks Paige!!
Thanks for the engineering master's degree thesis idea. Getting chickens on mars
GET IT
Loving the thumbnail lol
I had fun with this one haha
Remember you from Dnews, but lost you, now rediscovered. very nice
Welcome back!
Back in the 70s, I ate a fried tarantula leg...but then again I was part of the experiential generation...and it was the 70s...
How was it!!?
@@TraceDominguez ...a bit of a musty, peanut taste...or was that the hash...so many moments to write about...
We are still waiting for them to prove Space is real.
Lol
@@TraceDominguez Somebody needs to prove it, because nobody has ever explained how our Atmosphere (Air) sits next to a Vacuum (Space). Surly pressurized Air would disperse into into a vacuum. This is one of the questions alot of people are asking.
As an Irishman , potatoes are great food.
0:01 Tech Zone music ☺️
Oh yeah?
Yo, came from the video tom Scott posted. I remember you on D news, RIP D news.
RIP indeed
Food. They will eat food
But from WHERE and what KIND. Abraham Lincoln was a president, but he was a bit more than that. The details matter 🙃
Genetically modified super-lettuce with all the nutrients you'd need
1 solution is O'Neill cylinders for farming. We could even make nature preserves as large as Madagascar up there. Main problem would be solar wide infrastructure.
I'd say long off solution but with robotics, 3D printing, and a growing knowledge of how to manipulate the elements. Let alone unknown discoveries to come. It might be something my grandchildren see staring while raising children.
Lunar mining and the construction bonus of a tiny gravity well! That opens up mining asteroids. The leftover rumble is good shielding for the cylinders.
Amazing video, came from Tom scott
Welcome!
I love Amy Shira Teitel, we need more of her
She’s the bestest
He is the chosen one... (by tom scott) this is noice!
One tiny editing critique, as a viewer, it would be nice if your qualifiers (such as at 2:41) could be a little larger and last onscreen for a bit longer. They look slick, but are easy to miss. Otherwise, excellent, I look forward to warching more.

Handsome young man. Love you bro.
Thanks Blake!
Your seeker+ was really great ... Can u do it again ?
That’s basically what this is!
@@TraceDominguez long episodes into segments and deeper dive into the subjects that is what i about seeker+
Awesome video at Tom Scott, and after watching some on this channel I immediately subbed! I'll make sure to also tell my friends to check out this channel :)
Thank you Joshua!
Hey it's seeker guy 🥰
Hi!
found about you thanks to Tom Scott!
Same here. Looking forward to more vids from this guy 🙂
Welcome friends!!
Hey dude weren't you on the channel dnews? Loved you on there I will be definitely watching your channel man
Yep! I helped start it back in the day
4:53 "and they thought this thru" big doubt
Stoked to find this channel. Subbed and enjoying the back catalog. Go Vegan! :)
Thanks!
In the future we are going to havr news like. First bees on Mars, few years later bees mutate and turn into killer bees.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I LOSTYOU ON SEEKER, now I found you! and you won't get rid of me!! nice collab with Tom, loved te vid there!
Thanks JJ!
Will you ever make an episode on Biosphere 2?
I wanna know whatcha did with all those burgers.. ;)
😆😋
space chickens
Why don't we send a probe with dozen of different seeds, crash it on Mars and maybe something catches on.
We do have a chance of contaminating Mars when we send probes, the planetary protection office has to keep it safe. We don’t want to get earth stuff on Mars before we fully understand what’s there now!
I hadn’t expected to find a UA-camr with the same name as me; I never expected if I did, that they would have had the same idea of “Uno Dose of Trace”
Just goes to show it was a good idea! Lol.
Hey there fellow Trace!
You think $1 cheese burgers are good? In Australia we have $0.78 cheese burgers ($1AUD=$0.78USD)
Hey, Im from Tom Scott
Hi I’m from here
Im acctually from my mom, but cool video
¿Will they grow pumpkins 🎃,eatible cactus 🌵,corn 🌽 on Mars?¿will there be Video games 🎮 so the astronauts will have entertainment?
Trace, just an advice that might work: try to push up views by 'some' means just so you can push to 100k+. People tend to click on videos that have lots of views even when they aren't actually interested in the topic. You thumbnails and titles are great, but you just need a bit of a kickstart for a while (maybe 1-2 months) and you'll start to see your channel run by itself faster exponentially.
You don't like quiche??!! Oh my...
ITS SO WEIRD I NO LIKE
@@TraceDominguez It's just a big ole omelet with your fave stuff thrown in.. :) Yummmm... ;)

Trace Dominguez: Gains loads of new viewers off the back of the Tom Scott video.
Makes a decent video.
Ends it with a vegetabilist rant and loses the new viewers.
Humans have evolved to be omnivorous over millions of years. We don't need to "evolve" over a few decades to live without meat.
OMG 😍💋 💝💖❤️
