Astronauts grill chicken and steak in China's first space oven

00:26

China's astronauts have enjoyed their first home-style meal in space, thanks to a new modern convenience added to the country's "space kitchen."

The Shenzhou-20 and Shenzhou-21 crews made both space exploration and culinary history by using a hot-air oven 400 kilometers above Earth aboard China's space station.

They enjoyed a celestial spread of sizzling, golden-brown chicken wings and black peppercorn steaks minus the smells thanks to the oven's built-in purification system.
