A space oven operates in microgravity environments by forcing convection towards the center through a unique heating element and airflow design. The space oven includes a tubular chamber, a heating rack, a heating system, a cooling system, a hatch, a user interface, a microcontroller, an enclosure, at least one first vent, at least one second vent and at least one temperature sensor. The tubular chamber is the cooking area. The heating rack holds consumables in place. The heating system heats up consumables. The cooling system prevents any overheating. The hatch closes off and allows access to the inside of the tubular chamber. The user interface allows a user to input commands. The microcontroller manages the electronic components. The enclosure protects the tubular chamber. The at least one first vent and the at least one second vent reduce pressure buildup. The at least one temperature sensor monitors the internal temperature.
