Kristine Atienza: The First Filipino Analog Astronaut At Hi-Seas

30 Oct 2025

Description

What will astronauts actually eat, and what can Mars menus teach us about feeding people on Earth? Yuki talks with Kristine Jane Atienza, public health nutritionist, founder of the Space Nutrition Network, and the first Filipino analog astronaut, about living and working at HI-SEAS, balancing calories, protein, and morale, and why cultural food identity (yes, adobo and rice!) belongs in space. Kristine also shares her path to NASTAR suborbital training, plans to help launch the first Space Food & Nutrition Lab at the Philippine Space Agency, and how her side project turning Philippine constellations into sound connects science, heritage, and hope.Kristine Atienza’s personal website: https://tintinatienza.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tintinatienza/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tintinatienza/?hl=enX/Twitter: https://x.com/tintinatienzaHi-Seas: https://www.hi-seas.org/MerPeople Docu: https://www.netflix.com/pe-en/title/81439780Lunares: https://lunares.space/Asclepios: https://asclepios.ch/Philippines Space Agency: https://philsa.gov.ph/D-Futuro Conference: https://dfuturo.id/Vogue Magazine: https://vogue.ph/international-womens-day/kristine-atienza-food-for-the-stars/The Airlock Module Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/AirlockModule
