In this video clip, the astronauts are seen holding the pizza base and adding various ingredients on top of it. However, unlike on earth, all the ingredients, including the pizza base, are floating in the air and have to be firmly held onto in order to finish making the dish.
The video concludes with the astronauts showing the floating pizza to the camera before taking a bite.
Apart from the likes, the post has also received tons of comments too. One Instagram user wrote: “It’s insane.” While another called it excellent.
“What an experience,” read another comment. The video clip took everyone by surprise and also made everyone head towards their kitchen, because nothing beats the love for food.
