Wired is reporting that the Pentagon’s research wing DARPA is seeking scientists to develop ways for soldiers to fight up to five days without having to eat a single meal. A consultant with DARPA told Wired, “The question is: 'Are there temporary biochemical approaches we can use to squeeze the last ounce of performance out of soldiers when they're already worked to exhaustion?’” In addition DARPA is developing ways to lower the body temperature of soldiers in order to prevent them from overheating.
