The chips are scheduled to make their debut on SpaceX's Polaris Dawn mission later this month. That mission aims to take advantage of Falcon 9 and Dragon's maximum performance and hopes to fly higher than any Dragon mission to date, with the goal of reaching the highest Earth orbit ever flown — seems like something that will totally be possible now that they have the right snacks on board.
For the release of the chips, Doritos has partnered with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. As part of the partnership, Doritos is making a $500k donation to the hospital for its mission of the non-space variety: "Finding cures. Saving children everywhere."
