Ten Questions for Space Suit Designer Dava Newman
Posted by NOVAscienceNOW_Motherboard on Thursday, Jan 14, 2010
On this final segment of NOVA scienceNOW’s chat with awesome MIT engineer Dava Newman, she’s asked to pick between Star Wars and 2001, talks about what foods to eat while sailing around the world (that is, when food isn’t being used to steer the boat), and shares the highest complement she’s received for her form-fitting next generation space suit. Nope, it’s not about how much it makes astronauts look like Spider Man.
You can still send her your own questions too.
