Cordless Tools »
Cordless Tools
Cordless Tools☜2. Cordless ToolsIn the mid-1960s, NASA needed a tool that astronauts could use to obtain samples of rocks and soil. Since rigging up a cord to a drill in outer space would be a difficult feat, NASA and Black & Decker invented a battery-powered, magnet-motor drill.☜90574E

Long Distances Telecommunications
Long Distances Telecommunications ☜5. Long-distance TelecommunicationsThe ability to carry on long-distance telephone conversations did not happen overnight. Before humans were sent into space, NASA built satellites that could communicate with people on the ground about what outer space was like. ☜90574E

Memory Foam »
Memory Foam
Memory Foam☜8. Memory FoamThe open cell polyurethane-silicon plastic was created for use in NASA aircraft seats to lessen impact during landings. The plastic has a unique property that allows it to evenly distribute the weight and pressure on top of it, which provides shock absorbency. ☜90574E

Safety Grooving »
Safety Grooving
Safety Grooving☜3. Safety grooving First experimented with at NASAs Langely Research Center in the 1960s as a way to improve safety for aircraft taking off on wet runways. ☜90574E

Scratch Resistant Lenses »
Scratch Resistant Lenses
Scratch Resistant Lenses☜9. Scratch-resistant LensesBecause of dirt and particles found in space environments, NASA needed a special coating to protect space equipment, particularly astronaut helmet visors. ☜90574E

Shoe Insoles »
Shoe Insoles
Shoe Insoles☜6. Shoe InsolesThe space suit designed for the Apollo missions included specially-made boots that put a spring in astronauts steps while providing ventilation. Athletic shoe companies have taken this technology and adopted it to construct better shoes that lessen the impact on your feet and legs.☜90574E

Water Filters »
Water Filters
Water Filters☜1. Water filtersAstronauts needed a way to cleanse water they take up into space, since bacteria and sickness would be highly problematic. NASA wanted to know how to clean water in more extreme situations and keep it clean for longer periods of time.☜90574E
