Astronaut Invents Amazing Space Cup

By gblass on | From chisblassternardone.blogspot.com
Astronaut Don Pettit has hacked together a MacGuyver-esque coffee cup which works in space. Normally, the lack of gravity means that zero-g sipping has to be done through a straw. Think about it -- when we tip up our cups here on Earth, the liquid inside stays put and the cup effectively moves out of the way allowing the drink to drop into our waiting mouths.

Astronaut Invents Zero-G Coffee Cup

By jaisonshereen on | From allarehere.blogspot.com
NASA astronaut Don Pettit loves his coffee. So it comes as no surprise that he found a way to drink coffee from a cup, instead of the traditional straw, on his day off Sunday aboard the International Space Station. Drinking any liquid in the weightless environment of space could be a messy affair. With hot coffee, it could be a potentially scalding affair. So astronauts use silver pouches and plastic straws to sip anything from water to orange juice to Pettit's beloved space java. "We can...Read Full Story
