Sometimes it’s the simplest ideas that work the best, and never has that been more true than in Venetian photographer Giorgia Zanellato’s magnificent Space Food. Ever imagined what those guys up on the moon were munching in between stints of floating weightlessly and thinking up memorable soundbites? That’s right a NASA-approved foil-wrapped banana and some donuts with pins in them. While we’re positive that the diets of astronauts aren’t predominantly aluminium-based, we love the effort that Giorgia’s gone to in turning a simple idea into an excellent photographic reality.
