Who Space-d it Better?

In 1984, Coca-Cola was first to create a customized can that would be able to dispense carbonated beverages in space for NASA. Pepsi then asked to be given the chance as well. Both created prototypes that were “flown on the STS 51-F mission in 1985 so crew members could evaluate the dispensers and do a taste test” but the “results were mixed and NASA did not add either company’s product to the Shuttle food pantry”. Digging the vintage can designs and funky contraptions. Link goes to more Coca-Cola images; for Pepsi see here.
