How do we? Questions of daily life in space.
Over the 60 year history of manned spaceflight, many questions have arisen amongst those of us on Earth as to life in space. How do we…. Go the bathroom, brush our teeth, sleep, and exercise in the weightless environment of space? , As we prepare to return to the moon and head outward to Mars, these are questions once again being raised and are vital as we go forward with longer missions and eventually establish a permanent presence among the planets.
In this session, we look at these and other questions that affect life in space and ask, How DO they do that in space?
For all ages.
