This food package contains a whole meal for one of the astronauts on the Apollo 10 mission. It was flown aboard the spacecraft in May 1969, but not consumed.

The contents of the package are individual bags of dehydrated food and a drink, all of which required rehydrating with water before eating.

Transferred from NASA to the Museum in 1981.
