It will be a long time before whole families go and even longer before pets are allowed. There have been discussions about building ships big enough to send a large group of people (500 or more ) on a one-way trip to find new worlds to ...

Cane travel is an enormously effective means for independent mobility. It is a complex system that includes lots of physics describing the way objects behave on Earth. For example, one big assumption for cane travel is that objects are attached by some means to the ground. That means we don't have to worry about bumping our heads on a heavy box that is suspended in midair. We can use the cane to ...

Few cats have been sent to space. France launched a black and white female tomcat in 1963 on a Veronique AGI sounding rocket No. 47 from Algeria. Hence, with developed technologies, cats can be protected against the harsh g-forces during lift off. However, cats need to undergo sufficient training, need to be fit and overcome the most common problem among astronaut-trained cats—overeating A ...

NASA astronauts think that their spacesuits are very fashionable However, the suits are not designed to be fashionable but to be useful protection. The important reason that the suits are white is because white reflects heat in space the same as it does here on Earth. In the future, when you and I have a chance to take a trip to space, maybe the suits will come in designer colors, even hot pink ...

If pets ever fly in space, they will need a pet spacesuit to be able to live. NASA has flown mice before on the Shuttle but they were in the protection of the Shuttle and were never outside. If they ever went outside, they would need a mouse suit. ---- Answer provided by Lonnie Moffitt Image:K2S logosmall.jpg Question and Answer extracted from the book Kids to Space - by Lonnie ...

It will have its own self-contained environment where you can float around the house and breathe your own oxygen. When your oxygen level drops to a certain level, someone may deliver a new supply. Who knows? You may even have an oxygen generator built into your home that will keep you supplied with oxygen. ...
