Imagine celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival with a view of Earth from 400 kilometers up! 🚀🌕 That’s exactly what the Shenzhou-20 crew experienced as they turned their space station module into a cosmic dining hall.
Their special menu was packed with homey flavors: savory mushrooms 🍄, comforting tofu rolls, fluffy shrimp balls, and even space-adapted mooncakes alongside osmanthus cheese rice cake. For the meat lovers on board, there were braised pork, spicy lamb and black pepper beef to spice up the party. It’s like an interstellar feast straight out of a foodie’s dream!
Through every bite, the astronauts felt a deep connection to traditions back home. From Earth, families gathered under lantern-lit skies, while up here, the Shenzhou-20 crew shared laughter and stories over dishes that taste just like home. It proves that no matter where you are—even in orbit—the magic of Mid-Autumn brings everyone together. 🌙✨
