Space Ninja Sneaks

When I was a kid, my Grandma made me a full ninja uniform complete with tabi boots. While I surely did look cool then, I can only imagine how I’d look now wearing these ninja-tastic sneaks from Asics. These are actually made for astronauts. Yeah, you read correctly. Because standard sports shoes hurt in space—something…

Zero Grav Wedding Dress

Japan’s Aerospace Exploration Agency is sponsoring a Space Couture Design Contest and as part of the publicity, the chairperson of the jury designed a wedding dress meant to look good on Earth (left, in photo) and in zero gravity (right, in photo). Apparently the key to being pretty in space is flounces? Battlestar Galactica never…

NASA to Make Big-Bada-Boom

NASA is planning on crashing a space probe into the moon in 2009. The explosion will be visible on Earth through a telescope and it will create a crater roughly the size of a third of a football field. This explosion does actually have a purpose; NASA is searching for ice on the moon to…

iPod From Orbit

The story goes like this: when Apple CEO Steve Jobs won an abandoned mineral mine in western Australia in a poker game from late Australian publishing and gaming tycoon Kerry Packer, he reportedly asked that the first advertisement capable of being seen from space be created there. Two years later, and what do you know,…

The Great Space Elevator

There are startups and then there are startups. Web 2.0 is all fine and dandy and I love AJAX as much as the next person but let’s face it, as amazing as Flickr, del.icio.us and MeasureMap are, they and the rest of the new web apps combined and taken to the tenth power aren’t even…

Persian Gulf To Build Spaceport

Their oil is going to run dry one day, so in the meantime, it looks like Persian Gulf countries are going to build spaceports. Okay, so that’s a bit of a generalization&mdash but at least in the United Arab Emirates, the US company Space Adventures is set to build a new $265 million station with…

NASA’s Dancing Space Penis

I love NASA. Space travel++. So they invented a skin that helps robots stay out of the way of humans. Good. So they show it off by playing music from Behind the Green Door and having some woman dance around it in tights. Oh, and the robot they used looks like a penis. So we’re…

The Mars Bio-Suit

I don’t know about you, but the planet Mars fascinates me greatly. All those crazy raves and space parties with aliens always look so fun. Plus Val Kilmer went there so it’s gotta be good, right? Well MIT agrees and has developed the Bio-Suit, a suit for exploring the surface of mars and other planets.…

Space Cycle

Puke Cycle is more like it. This device is designed to create gravity-like resistance for exercising in space. As anyone who has spent time in the inky blackness of the cosmos or has TiVo will tell you, the muscles of the body atrophy when not met with regular resistance. The Space Cycle will spin around,…

Space LED Watch

We covered these lads a few weeks back and they’ve finally launched the Space line of LED watches. These new pieces have a much more bulbous look and are clad in stainless steel. Priced at about $90, they’re available for pre-order. I have the gunmetal version and wear it quite a bit. It’s a good…

Rocket Lamp – And I Think It’s Gonna Be a Long Long Time

I used to have this crazy Russian lamp celebrating Sputnik or something that was very sharp and pointy and excellent for kids to play around, I’m sure. This rocket lamp is much more acceptable, with no sharp points and nothing that could suggest the psychosexual nature of 1960s space flight to an impressionable young boy.…
