6th Grade Student Gets To Brew Beer In Space

From FoxNews:
A Colorado sixth-grader is set to make history as the first person to experiment with brewing beer in space.
Michal Bodzianowski, 11, recently won a national competition sponsored by the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education to have his beer-making experiment flown to the International Space Station for testing, KDVR.com reported.
Michal’s experiment, which tests the fermentation process in microgravity, was one of only 11 chosen to be launched into space. He hopes to travel to Cape Canaveral, Fla., in December to watch the launch, according to the report.
Michal wrote in his project proposal that beer is "an important factor in future civilization as an emergency backup hydration and medical source."
