    Tang is a tasty drink that astronauts sometimes drink in outer space.

  • 1 decade ago

    Tang is a sugary, orange-flavored, non-carbonated soft drink from the USA. The original orange flavored Tang was formulated by General Foods Corporation in 1957 and first marketed (in powdered form) in 1959.[1]

    It was initially intended as a breakfast drink, but sales were poor until NASA began using it on Gemini flights in 1965 (researched at Natick Soldier Systems Center), and that use was heavily advertised.[2] Since that time, it has been associated with the U.S. manned spaceflight program.[3][4

    tang was first used by the astronauts in the 60's and it's crystalized orange juice and it has 100% vitamin C in it.

    It's a powdered orange-flavored breakfast drink that you mix with water. It became popular in the 1960s when astronauts used it.
