Are you a sucker for food delivery apps? Well, you aren't alone. Even astronauts are ordering food via food delivery providers these days. Yes, that's true. We aren't bluffing here. And, food delivery providers are trying their best to meet such demands. If you are wondering what we are talking about, here are the details. Uber Eats Japan has leapt into space in order to expand its delivery zones. Don't believe us? Well, the food delivery company has done the unimaginable. It made its first delivery from Earth to space on Saturday by sending meals to the astronauts in the International Space Station. Uber Eats のデリバリーは、進化し続けています。今、配達していない場所へ、次々と。@yousuck2020 さん、配達ありがとうございます????#宇宙へデリバリー#UberEatspic.twitter.com/Sh0PsXXwMX めちゃくちゃクールな配達!地球外でもお届け可能って(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)そっか、次は月にデリですね! これすごい笑宇宙にデリバリー。。。。頼む人限られてますが行きたい笑
If you are already stunned by this act, hold on. There's more for you. The Uber Eats delivery wasn't accomplished by any usual delivery guy. For the delivery of food, Japanese entrepreneur Yusaku Maezawa served as the delivery boy.
Uber Eats Japan posted a video of the food delivery on its Twitter page. There, we see Mr Maezawa delivering an Uber Eats brown paper bag to ISS commander Anton Shkaplerov. Mr Maezawa was dressed in a white T-shirt, shorts and an Uber Eats cap. The caption read, "Uber Eats delivery continues to evolve. One after another to places that are not delivering now." The post also thanked Mr Maezawa for the delivery. Take a look at the video:
