When John Glenn became the first American to orbit the earth in 1962, he had many tasks to perform, one of which was experimentation with the consumption of food in weightless conditions. While Glenn found this task easy, some experts were concerned that because of the weightless conditions found in space food would be difficult to swallow and therefore collect in the throat. They discovered that the natural process of swallowing was not impaired by microgravity.
