Espressos are readily available
Even when you’re out in space, you might still find yourself longing for a cup of that morning brown. Mercifully, an espresso machine designed to function in zero gravity reached the ISS in 2015. Perfectly named ISSpresso, it’s a collaboration between Italian coffee company Lavazza, engineering firm Argotec, and the Italian Space Agency. The device operates by using a NASA-standard drink bag, coupled with a specially designed capsule containing the warm beverage. The crew inserts these components into the ISSpresso, which then produces the drink under the unique conditions of space.
