In November this year, Air Force Captain Samantha Cristoforetti will become the first Italian woman to go to space. Guess she'll take her? A coffee machine! You didn't think of the answer, did you?

It seems that astronauts have done social life there. The only thing missing during the short break is the normal snack. What's a better way to meet this need and then install the coffee maker on the International Space Station (ISS)?

Italian Coffee King Lavazza will install a 20-kilogram coffee machine, named ISSpresso, in conjunction with Argotec and the Italian Space Agency. Considering the space microgravity, the ISSpresso is designed.

Fortunately, the temperature of boiling water on the International Space Station (ISS) is not affected. However, because the liquid needs to be pressurized, some precautions need to be taken to convert coffee beans into coffee in a highly scientific environment. One of them is to replace normal plastic pipes to steel pipes that can tolerate 400br pressure.

Astronauts will have to enjoy their own coffee, through a small plastic bag, using a straw. But it's better than nothing! This is because liquids cannot be easily constrained in space with less gravity.

Astronauts have indicated that they are indeed the most missed projects of happiness during long hours of work.

Look, we can see a better standard of living for astronauts in space.
