We have to agree with the folks over at The Kitchn when they say: the brewing conditions of beer impact taste, so it goes without saying that beer brewed on the moon will, quite literally, be out of this world. While a batch of beer has yet to be made on the moon, things could change if a group of engineering students from UC San Diego have their way.

Students from UCSD’s Jacobs School of Engineering have created a unique contraption: a vessel that will brew beer on the moon. The idea is to see how yeast acts on the moon — a valuable addition to understanding how to develop yeast-containing foods outside of Earth — but a delicious byproduct will be a batch of beer.

What does it take to brew beer on the moon?  The canister created by the students, who’s calling themselves “Team Original Gravity,” is inspired by fermenters. The vessel will launch from Earth containing unfermented beer in a compartment, with yeast in a separate compartment. When the spacecraft lands on the moon, a valve will open allowing the contents of the two compartments to mix. When the yeast has done its job, a second valve opens and the yeast sinks to the bottom and separates from the now-fermented beer.
