Description

There are so many things in our day-to-day lives that we take for granted that got their start as part of humanity's greatest endeavor - exploring the universe. The first, true laptop computer flew on the space shuttle, the first Bowflex helped astronauts keep in shape on the ISS, thin foil blankets often seen at the end of marathons were first used as lining on spacecraft. Join Kovi and Benjamin as they talk about how space inventions help us down here on Earth.
