You mean all ten of them?

- az09mugen 2y agoThanks for that link ^^ I looked a little bit into the numbers [0] and mostly [1], and it's something around 1 kg of CO2/day/person. According to the guardian [2], with water, electricity, ammonia, nutrients and 2 kgs of CO2, you can make 1 kg of some kind of food replacing the meat. I don't say it's easy to do but maybe it's worth exploring to lower the quantity of food astronauts need to bring with them to space.
