Astronaut Foods uses REAL ice cream that is placed into a vacuum chamber and frozen to 60 degrees BELOW zero. This causes the water from the ice cream to turn into ice. Next, the pressure is lowered in the chamber and enough heat is slowly added to allow the ice to change directly from solid to vapor without passing through a liquid phase. This process continues for hours, resulting in a perfect freeze-dried ice cream.
The typical machine used in the freeze-drying process consists of a chamber, heating unit, vacuum pump, and freezing coil. The airtight steel chamber withstands large temperature and atmospheric pressure changes. The heating unit heats the shelves inside the freeze-drying chamber. The vacuum pump removes air, lowering the pressure inside the chamber. The freezing coil and compressor, which is like the one in your refrigerator at home, collects the evaporated water.
It has long been disputed whether or not freeze-dried ice cream made an appearance on the Apollo 7 mission. However, what Astronaut Foods does know is that their ice cream was created with the intention of being used for the space program and space education. In early 2016, late show host Stephen Colbert sent Astronaut Foods ice cream into space LIVE, so yes, they can confirm it has been to space!
Freeze-drying is like suspended animation, because it keeps the ice cream totally intact, but without the water. As you eat the crunchy pieces of ice cream, it melts in your mouth and becomes a creamy yumminess.
