Thai aerospace engineers have entered the second phase of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) competition by proposing Thai food wisdom -- in the form of the sago worm -- to feed future astronauts during long-duration space voyages, according to the Public Relations Department.
The sago worm is the larva of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, which is found in sago palm trunk. It is a staple food in the southern part of Thailand.
