Hi Nancy, Thanks for posting this. One more reason I'd like to make the trip. :) But seriously, when one thinks about how wasteful, inefficient and oft times cruel the production of animal protein is it only makes sense to have plant based diets on such missions. I just wish I'd checked my email sooner as I just did my first interview on XM Satellite radio and we talked about Mars exploration so your story would have fit in nicely.
