Soviet space food

From a distance it looks like a box of paints, but the contents of these tubes and cans sustained cosmonauts on their early excursions into space.

I went down to the Science Museum to visit Cosmonauts and also catch the Alec Soth.

Cosmonauts was small and beautifully formed with beautiful examples of engineering and design. The Soth comprised of three series' of work of which 'Niagra'  proved the most moving to me. The location described as a "site of spectacular suicides and affordable honeymoons", Soth explores peoples stories using portraits and still life.

Both are well worth visiting.
