The United Space Alliance is responsible for sending specially-packaged “fresh” food to space so that the astronauts don’t have to rely fully on freeze dried food. As part of the next shipment, the United Space Alliance will be sending eight dark chocolate bars from Endangered Species Chocolate, a company that donates 10% of their net profits to supporting animals and their habitats. The flight is set to launch on February 12.
