That included a brief pivot to video game publishing, of all things. In 2009, NASA teamed up with multiple video game studios to create a space-themed MMO.

Tovala Meal Kit and Oven Review (2025): We’re Nearing Robot Chef

Tovala is the only meal kit I know of that comes with its own oven—and I speak as someone who has tested a lot of meal kits and also ovens. Still, the idea isn't merely wacky.
