　The Satellite Design Contest is a contest-style educational program for students from high school to graduate school. Participants will create and design various space missions, including small satellites. We will select outstanding works from a variety of perspectives, including inspiration, originality, basic technical knowledge, and future potential. This time, a student team from Toba National College of Marine Technology made a presentation titled "Galaxy S☆O☆M☆E☆N."

(Overview)
　Through food, we not only receive the energy necessary for life's activities, but also receive various benefits such as communication with family, alleviation of stress and fatigue, etc. As an example of how this effect can be obtained in space, I would like to propose ``nagashi somen'' as a highly entertaining dish that the crew can enjoy together. He devised a Nagashi Somen machine that was designed to prevent water from spilling, based on a home-style Nagashi Somen machine.
