Snack time on the International Space Station as NASA astronaut Scott Kelly watches a bunch of fresh carrots float in front of him while preparing to partake of their crunchy goodness. Scott is one of the One-Year crew members on the station to test how the human body reacts to an extended presence in space as preparation for the long flights NASA plans to Mars and back in the future.
