According to LiveScience, new technology could be on the way that will have the ability to transform human poop into edible food.
... And all from the comfort of space.
Not only will astronauts no longer need to worry about running out of sustenance, but there'll also be a handy new way of disposing of the poop that they already make too.
Reduce, reuse, recycle, guys.
It's the future.
Researchers at Pennsylvania State University recently discovered certain microbes that can aid poop in its transition into edible bacterias.
So what exactly would this poo-food space food taste like?
Well, according to study author Christopher House, it reminds him of Marmite.
