IN SPACE (Reuters)– Though they may be more than 200 miles away from earth and far away from family this holiday, that wasn’t going to stop astronauts aboard the International Space Station from enjoying a ‘spacegiving feast’ of rehydrated foods with all the fixings.

NASA published a photo of their meal, which included rehydrated turkey, stuffing, potatoes and vegetables.

It also included a cherry blueberry cobbler for dessert, NASA Commander Shane Kimbrough said in a statement he made from space on November 18, previewing the meal to be shared by the international crew.

This is the second time Kimbrough will be celebrating Thanksgiving in space and the third for another American NASA astronaut aboard the ISS with him.
