    VALENTINE’S DAY GIFT GUIDE First space pens, then crunchy ice cream, and now an ant farm from the future! Astronauts get all the cool stuff. This setup was created by NASA for study of how well ants tunnel in microgravity. You can watch them tunnel in 3-D through the nutrient-rich gel, and you never have feed them or give them water. Ants are not included, though the package does come with a form that lets you order them by mail. It also comes with the case and gel, a magnifying glass, and an ant catching/tunnel starting pool. Now we have something to do while we wait for affordable personal jetpacks to come on the market.
